Preschool Name Activity
We often want to teach our kids to identify and spell their name before we start introducing other letters. Name activities are a typical introduction to letters because those letters have meaning for our kids and spark an interest in letters. There are a few different spins you can have on a name activity.
- Name Recognition – Focus on learning to identify the name as a whole
- Letter Recognition – Focus on learning to identify the individual letters in a name
- Name Spelling – Focus on learning to put the letters of your name in the correct order
- Name Writing – Focus on being able to write your name
