Celebrate the weekend with
newspaper pompoms!
Roll up a sheet of newspaper
and tape it shut at one end.
Then cut or tear strips from
the one end to about the
middle of the row.
With your child, look
through the newspaper
to find pictures of things
that start with the same
sound as the letter
D in day.
Point to the number
7 in the newspaper.
Have your child say the
number and, if it's large
enough, have your child
trace the number.
Look at pictures in the
newspaper and ask your
child if it is day or
night in each picture.
After your child answers,
ask why he or she
thinks it is day or
night.
Look through the
newspaper for pictures
that represent something
your child does in the
morning, afternoon,
evening and night. Cut out
each picture and make a
picture book about what
people do in a day.

to a little d.
