Along with our volcano sensory bin, our letter V books, and lots of letter V crafts, we’re making the letter V in lots of different ways. Read on for creative ways to write the alphabet!

My Two used dot stickers on this printable. You could also use round magnets or pom-poms with magnets hot-glued to the back. For your copy, see this post.
My Six made a V out of toy vehicles.
V is for vegetables!
I am forever telling my Four that the vacuum is not a toy, so he jumped at the chance to make a V out of vacuum parts.
My Two loves using power magnets to complete these magnet pages from Confessions of a Homeschooler.
All the kids did Do-a-Dot worksheets, also from Confessions of a Homeschooler. They’re getting sloppy on these, so I think we’ll set them aside for a month or two.
My Two (almost three) does not write letters on his own yet, but he loves to do these beginner handwriting pages. (Hmmm – he used his left hand last week!) To see all of my “Letters of All Sizes” handwriting sheets, visit this page.
Here’s another beginning handwriting page for kids who are ready to trace letters on a line. My Four zipped through this one. To get a copy, visit this page.
Today, for the first time, I gave my Four a handwriting page where he traced and wrote letters by himself. After I explained how to use the dots as a guide, he did pretty well. For your copy, see this page.

I love the vacuum V. I totally understand “the vacuum is not a toy!” My almost two year old has loved the vacuum since he could crawl. All the others screwed and cried when the vacuum came out, he chased it and still is!

Isn’t that funny how different kids have a different reaction? I always thought it was interesting when my babies transitioned from being comforted by the vacuum sound to being scared of it. Thanks so much for stopping by, Lucy!

I just want to say thank you for your site. It is absolutely terrific and has benefitted both my son and me. Each week, I am excited to see what letter we are going to study and what fun things we get to do to study it! I especially appreciate the way you document each of your children’s attempt at the crafts and your honesty with what happens during the sensory activities. Thanks!

Thank you, Michelle! I so appreciate your comment. I wish I had the whole alphabet done for you 🙂 We’re working at it… slowly but surely! Thanks so much for following along!
