4. Let’s be honest. Phonics can be boring. But this Vowel Farm Game from There’s Just One Mommy is a super fun way to help little ones learn vowels!

5. Make alphabet learning into a trip to the Wild West! Ashley from Life with Moore Babies has a great Mining for Gold Letters activity that would be fabulous in a Wild West unit study!
