Sprinkles Alphabet Writing

Setting up this super inviting simple sprinkles writing activity takes no time at all!
You will need:
Bowl, dish or tray
Sprinkles
Alphabet cards
The basic goal of the Sprinkles Alphabet Writing Activity is for preschoolers to practice forming letters without the stress of holding a pencil. This is a great way to strengthen fine motor skills while encouraging pre-writing skills.

Different Ways to Play
If your child is ready to recognize and spell their name, add all of those letters above the tray for your child to practice.
If your child has mastered their uppercase letters, encourage them to write the lowercase letter that goes along with the heart shaped alphabet card in the sprinkles instead!
Even if your child is not ready to copy the letter in the sprinkles, just writing straight and curvy lines in the sprinkles is a pre-writing skill in its own!


You can use various ingredients. I setup one activity with sprinkles and another with cinnamon sugar. You can also use salt or rice.
