• Make sure your child does not add a vowel to the end of /h/ such as /huh/
• When saying the /h/ sound – have your child put their hand up to their mouth to feel the air

• Star – Use a star cookie cutter to cut shapes with cookie dough, bread, lunch meat

• Build a wall using large blocks.  March around the wall and blow a horn.  Knock the walls down.  (Author unknown)

• Create Shape Picture - Using the shapes learned, pre-cut all of the shapes out of construction paper.  Allow the child to glue the shapes on a large piece of paper to create a picture.  Draw anything extra needed.  Idea from Preschool Playbook

Here is one idea for a picture.     Shape Picture

• Fine Motor Skills:
Using safety scissors, have your child cut along a thick line drawn on heavy paper (cardstock) - When cutting, remind the child that their dominant hand does the cutting while the other hand moves the paper.  Watch that the elbows do not point out while cutting.  Check out Teaching How to Use Scissors for ideas.

• Gross Motor Skills:
Use pieces of painter’s tape to make large outlines on the floor of a circle, square, triangle, etc.  Have your child identify the shape and then let them walk, crawl, or hop around the edges of the shapes. (Don’t use masking tape – it will leave a residue)  
Idea from Chalkboard
