Anytime, Anywhere! ABC time!

If you have met my son Nathan, you will know he is obsessed with ABC. He can literally be singing ABC song in his sleep. HILARIOUS because we witnessed it a few times!


Ok.. Topic of the day is:
How to entertain a 2-year-old at the table while waiting for your food

All you need is a piece of paper and some colour pencils! Or just a pen!

First, just write out A-Z on a piece of paper.


Next, sing the ABC song while pointing to the alphabets.


Then play "word" search! Give the kiddo a pen/pencil/crayon, have him circle (or shade if he doesn't know how to circle) the alphabet you call out! 



This should take you about 5-10min to finish one round and the food should be served already! If not, do another round! Hahaha.. 

You can change the activity a bit by writing out 1-10. Or if your child already knows upper case and lower case, you can do some matching by drawing lines!

Hopefully with this more meaningful and educational activity, you will have no more screaming bored kids at the table, playing with utensils and attempting to throw them at the waitress trying to take your order. :)

Cheers!
