Today we’re sharing 9 letter P crafts to create with your preschooler or kindergartner!

You'll love the variety in this set of 9 letter P crafts and art projects for kids!

Letter P Crafts

I shared this post years ago, when my children were young. I love looking back at the fun things we did to fill our days as I taught my kids the alphabet! I highly recommend doing sensory, art, and fine motor activities with your preschooler simply because it’s fun. These activities also provide opportunities to develop oral language and other early literacy skills. However, please note that research tells us that direct instruction in letters and sounds is the most efficient way to teach and learn the alphabet. Find our full alphabet curriculum here.

Pepper Prints

Painting with vegetables is always fun! We had a huge pepper crop in our garden this year, so we grabbed a few that had seen better days, split them down the middle, cleared out the seeds, and made pepper prints.

Prickly Porcupine

My Four saw this adorable porcupine project from Preschool Playbook on my Letter P Pinterest board.  He wanted to do it all by himself. So he cut the body, decorated with a marker and googly eye, and went to town with fork prints to make the quills. This is one of my favorites. 😉

Pig Shape Craft

You'll love the variety in this set of 9 letter P crafts and art projects for kids!

I don’t do a lot of these types of craft with my Four; they’re so simple and don’t teach him much. But my Two loves them! I cut out the pieces for this pig craft and helped him apply glue in the right places. He patted everything down and added the dots for eyes. Cute. 🙂

Toothy Pumpkins

You'll love the variety in this set of 9 letter P crafts and art projects for kids!

This was a fun after school craft that all my big kids enjoyed. They did all the cutting and designing themselves. My Four is quite creative, as you can see. 😉 Maybe it’s a football player pumpkin? We saw these toothy pumpkins on Cindy DeRosier: My Creative Life.

Coffee Filter Peacock

You'll love the variety in this set of 9 letter P crafts and art projects for kids!

You will see varations of this coffee filter peacock all over Pinterest. We used dot markers and glitter paint thumbprints for the tail. I cut out the pieces for the body, and my Two glued them down.

Paper Plate Pigs

You'll love the variety in this set of 9 letter P crafts and art projects for kids!

Even though this is more of a structured craft, the kids still had a chance to be creative and do things their own way. I cut out the pieces. They painted, glued, and decorated. My Four decided his pig needed feet. We saw these paper plate pigs at Teach Preschool. I loved their special tip that let us complete the entire pig face without having to let the paint dry first!

Pointillism Pumpkins

You'll love the variety in this set of 9 letter P crafts and art projects for kids!

Okay, I didn’t actually introduce the concept of “pointillism” to my two-year-old, but go for it if your little one will listen! I saw an idea for paint swatch pointillism at Lalymom and decided to do an easier version using cardstock with my Two. I cut big circles with my small circle punch (love that thing!), and he glued them onto a pumpkin pattern.

P is for Penguin

You'll love the variety in this set of 9 letter P crafts and art projects for kids!

This letter P penguin was part of an entire Letter of the Week craft series I did at Crystal and Comp. Visit the original post for the free pattern.

Pom Pom Painting

You'll love the variety in this set of 9 letter P crafts and art projects for kids!

I saw this idea for pom pom painting at Fantastic Fun and Learning. Both my Two and Four enjoyed this simple art activity using clothespins, pom poms, and paint.

    Your website is good and I consult it always only that I would like to ask you to assist me with materials and advice on how to make my kindergartens speak English most faster than they already do.
    I wait to read from you soon.

      Hello! You are welcome to use any of the free resources on my site, but I don’t have experience teaching English as a second language.
