Tot School - Letter Hh

Mouse is 3 years old.

Letter Hh activities

Books for Hh week.


Hh is for Hippo activities from 1+1+1=1.


Bottle cap letter matching practice from COAH.


Hippo size sequencing from COAH, after which he brought all the hippos to the waterhole to drink and eat d:)

Playdough time! Uppercase and lowercase Hhs from COAH.


We used our wooden H block as a stamp and made H cookies.


Hh is for Heart prewriting practice from 3Dinosaurs.


Matching hearts and uppercase-lowercase Hhs.


Roll and Graph Hearts. I added a little bell inside the die for some extra fun.


I wrote big and little Hs on round stickers for him to stick on the Hhs on the heart in one of the worksheets from the Heart pack. Great way to combine sticker practice as well as uppercase-lowercase recognition. I saw this idea on a homeschooling website long ago but can't remember what the site was.


Hh is for hammer stamping activity from 1+1+1=1. After placing pompom magnets on all the stars, he told me he wanted to "chopchop", so we did.


Together, we built a house out of wooden blocks for the blue car.


This activity was succeeded by his automatic sorting habit once the Sorting Box was out.

Sorting wooden blocks by colour in Sorting Box

Non Hh activities

Pattern block practice, printable from COAH.


We went to Mummy: Secrets of the Tomb exhibition on Thursday so there was no Tot School that day, but I decided to get some schooling done in the car (kiasu Singapore mother). We brought along our magnetic cookie sheet, some number cards and magnetic pompoms and 12yo Takoyaki (who was in the back seat) helped with instructing him on what to do - count and place the correct number of pompoms on each card. My job in the front seat was just to take photos d:)


The next day, I was about to keep the number cards but he suddenly decided he wanted to play with them. So I encouraged him to line them up in ascending order on the table.


He then proceeded to place number blocks on the cards.


More Bottle Cap matching - Takoyaki helped me to make these spelling cards. There's also one with his photo and name but I won't be posting that up.


More stuff to do with Bottle Cap letters - UC-LC matching (on a felt board so the caps and letter disks which are not stuck on caps yet, don't slide around so much).


Just to fill up the gap, I brought out an old file folder game - Paint Brush colour sorting.


He browsed around his learning toys and pulled out the whole box of fruit puzzles. This was the first time his attention span was long enough to complete all the puzzles (with minimal help from me).
