Letter of the Week Snack: P is for Pumpkin

Sharing is caring!

Welcome to our weekly Letter of the Week snack series, if this is your first time stopping by you are going to love all of our alphabet snack ideas that we have to share!  These letter of the week snacks are a great way to start introducing letters and letter sounds to your young children or using as reinforcement for older kids.

Incorporating letters into fun things like snacks and games is a great way to help your kids learn their letters and the sounds the letters make.  If you homeschool, you can easily add these into your curriculum.  If your kids go to preschool or kindergarten, maybe coordinate with the teacher for the day they are learning a specific letter, have your child take a fun letter snack that day!

This week’s letter is the letter P and since we are so close to Halloween, we thought we would share a Pumpkin snack idea.  P is for Pumpkin.  These snacks are perfect for a classroom party or just a snack for your kids.
