Try some of these fun letter T activities with your 2-year-old!

Have you been following along with our letter of the week series for toddlers? In each post I share a collection of simple activities and printables that will help your 2-year-old learn the alphabet.

I’ll admit – life gets in the way at our house – so we’re finishing this up a month after my little girl turned three. But I’m still keeping it simple so you can find activities your toddler will love!

Here’s a simple painting activity perfect for letter T – tire track painting. We simply rolled plastic cars in washable tempera paint and made tire tracks on paper.

Here’s an oldie but a goodie – one of the first free printables I shared on my site, when I created my own clip art because I couldn’t afford to buy any yet. Some two-year-olds won’t be interested in matching the stickers to each circle on the printable, but if your child is up for it this is a great fine motor activity. Grab the printable here.

My daughter was very proud of her tiger that we made following the directions from No Time for Flashcards. She painted the plate one day. On the next day I cut out all the pieces and placed them on the plate to show her how the face could look. Then I applied the glue and she placed all the pieces down herself.

I printed a double set of our letter T picture cards (get them in the download at the end of this post). Then we played a matching game. She’s getting better and better at this. I love seeing her little face light up when she remembers where to find a match!

Now that my toddler is writing letters on her own I knew she could handle letter T. So I pulled out a dry erase board and marker and modeled how to make a T – I’m guessing you can find mine on the board. 😉

I drew dots and asked my daughter to use them to draw her own T’s, but she quickly lost interest. As you can see.

We tried just one more time because I knew she could do it!

As an alphabet review activity, we tried this DIY Bingo game from Frugal Fun for Boys and Girls. I needed to help my toddler understand how to draw a card, cover the matching letter with a magnet, and set the card aside. Then she played the game herself. If you are teaching a young 2-year-old you’ll need to be a lot more hands-on. (I was doing a separate reading lesson with her older brother at the same time.)

I know this is a fuzzy picture, but it’s always hard for me to get in-action shots! My Five wrote letters on card stock and taped them around the living room. Then my toddler collected and named each letter.

We finished the week with one more cute craft – this turtle from Fun Crafts 4 Kids. At first my daughter started by streaking the Do-a-dot marker across the turtle’s back. If she were younger, I would have let it go, but I knew she could do a fun design with dots if she wanted to.

So we started again, and this time I showed her how to make dots with the marker instead of streaks. I was delighted to see that she made this design all on her own!

We hope this gave you some inspiration for letter T activities to try with your 2-year-old!

    Good morning. I ordered your product yesterday morning and have not received in my email. I check all folders and nothing. I’m worried I ordered something and will not receive. Paid $19.97. Please advise. Thank you.

    Hi Anna,
    I absolutely LOVE your resources…I have downloaded so many of them and they are so helpful. I am Junior infant teacher (4-5 yr olds) in Ireland and we’re just learning our sounds at the moment so I’m really finding your alphabet resource especially handy at the moment. I was wondering if it would be possible to have a different font option for your ‘t’ and ‘k’ as in Ireland we follow the Jolly Phonics programme use sassoon infant font where nearly all the letters have a curl on them.
    Thanks for keeping so many of your resources free as it is such a help to us all.

      Hi Jennifer! I understand your issue, but I’m limited to the fonts that I have. It would also be difficult for me to have time to create my printables in two versions so that both styles are represented. Sorry about that!

    I love your ideas! I am a teacher turned stay-at-home mom. I taught upper education and I am trying to teach my 4 year old his letters. Its a challenge! I’m used to working with high school kids. Thank you for the resource
