I spotted these alphabet cookies at Trader Joe’s last week and just knew that they’d make for a great Tot School Tuesday activity! Logan had a blast matching the cookie letters to the letter printout, with a few snack breaks and letter replacements in between. After showing him how to do it once, this turned into a solo play activity that he did over all morning. Don’t you just love when that happens? Thank you Trader Joe’s!

Activity: Alphabet Cookie Matching
(learning objective: identifying letters & sounds, matching)
Materials
Trader Joe’s Alphabet Cookies
Printer
Instructions
Pick out each letter of the alphabet A-Z in cookies or have your child help with this. Print out the letters on two sheets, I used Franklin Gothic Heavy font at 160 font. Have your child match the cookie letters to the alphabet on the sheet, identifying letters and sounds as they go.

We’ve had fun with alphabet crackers, too! With my oldest, we did a little “Eat Your Sight Words” activity– you can be sure he enjoyed that! : )
