I went shopping with Kirsten last week and found these awesome letters at Walmart. Normally I see small flat ones, but these were big, thick and already painted white. They were perfect. We were looking for something to make a craft for Popa for his birthday. We picked up a letter P for Popa and of course, Kirsten wanted a letter K for herself. They were all out of the letter C for Cam, so I'll be on the look out for one for him when I go again. I'd love to have Camden decorate his just like his Popa's, all in buttons. It would look great in his bedroom with green buttons. I'm a little button obsessed. Kirsten found these beautiful stickers that she wanted to decorate her letter with. They were so pretty, I happily obliged. The kids did an amazing job decorating the letters. We picked out all our nicest blue buttons and the kids glued them on their Popa's letter P. He absolutely loved it. Kirsten put the stickers all over her letter K and now it's up on her bookshelf in her room. I just love these things. Can't wait to make another one for Cam!
I can't wait to go out and get my "READ" letters today - I'm going to decorate mine with scrapbook paper, I think. I do REALLY like the buttons, but I'm not sure I want to buy that many.
Great idea - the letters turned out beautifully! I featured your post at the Living Montessori Now Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/LivingMontessoriNow
