Ice Cream Cone: Idea #5

Everybody loves ice cream...especially kids! A fun way to get your child to learn their letter sounds is to make a paper ice cream cone. Start off by cutting out a paper ice cream cone. The cone should be flat, like a triangle. Similar to this:

Then tape it up on the wall. Each time your child masters a letter sound, tape an ice cream scoop on top of the cone. The scoop should look similar to this:

Make sure to write the letter on the scoop in order to keep track of what sounds they know. You can even have your child color the scoop the way they would like. For example, brown for a chocolate scoop, pink for a strawberry scoop, etc. Once their ice cream cone has 26 scoops on it, showing all 26 letters, they have earned a trip to get ice cream!

Yum! I scream, you scream,
we all scream for ice cream!!!
