ABOUT THE BOOK:
This book contains arts and crafts for each letter of the alphabet; easy, fun and creativity-boosting.
While learning the letters through these projects, the children gain awareness of the phonics,
develop fine motor skills and language.
The children experience different materials and textures.
The project suggested for each letter can be done according to the child’s ability and wish.
After finishing a project collect all the bits of left patterned paper for collages or other future projects.
Have fun!
