Letter Grabbers!!

You have got to get to Target!! Go straight to the Easter section and grab up some of these letter grabbers...o.k., they're actually egg grabbers:) I bought them for my boys for Easter for $3 and thought they were SoOoOo cute!! So, I got to thinkin' about what I else I could use them for!

I decided they would make great letter grabbers! I got a plastic tub and filled it with water bottle letter tiles. (Just have people save their old water bottle lids for you. Write a letter on each one with a sharpe and you have letter tiles!:) So, all the kiddos have to do is stick their "letter grabber" in the tub, scoop up some letters and pull the trigger to close the mouth of the grabber. Release the trigger to open your grabbers mouth and spread you letters out to see what words you can make with the letters you grabbed!

Here's a response sheet to go with this center:

    This is so precious but I think I missed my window of opportunity! At the beginning of the year you could use them just for letter identification.
    Thank you for the sweet email. I am following you friend and this blog has some great ideas!
