Letter of the Week Snack: D is for Dirt

Sharing is caring!

Hi, everyone!  I am Chrissy from The Taylor House, I am so excited to be here at Crystal & Comp to share some fun Letter snack ideas with you.  This is week four of our Letter of the Week Snack ideas for preschoolers and I hope that you have loved the fun  ideas that we have come up with and continue to check back each week to find a new and inspiring snack.  

Letter of the week snacks are a great way to start introducing letters to your kids at a young age by sharing the alphabet with them in a fun and unique way.  What child wouldn’t love to have fun snacks like these?

Another great idea is to use these snacks in your kids classrooms.  Are they responsible for taking a group snack occasionally?  Have them coordinate there snack with the letter they are learning that week.  I think a teacher would love this idea and having another way to incorporate the letter into their lesson plan.

Today I am sharing a snack with the letter D and have created a Dirt Cup.  Here are the instructions on how to make one yourself.
