We practiced writing letters in coffee grounds one morning after Mom cleaned out a cupboard. Why did I buy Instant Decaf? YUCK! So, before we tossed them, we had to play with them. Of course 😉
Visual Contrast Letter Writing
I poured the coffee grounds onto a white cutting board for maximum contrast and had Big Sister practice some lower case letters. She loved this! The black on white let the letters really show. She felt so special doing this activity because she could play with coffee!
Sensory Letter Writing
We practiced the letters that are easy to reverse (b, d, p, g, d) and a few words that she knows how to spell. She stood at the kitchen counter for a while making letters.
Little Guy had to get in on the action and make some shapes, too.
A great multi-sensory input way to practice letters!
