Yellow Yarn
- Glue Y Page … Start your week by gluing yellow yarn to your letter Y alphabet page. I had my 3-year-old help measure the yarn to fit on the three Y lines, then he cut them.
- Cutting Yarn
- My 3-year-olds favorite activity was actually using his little scissors to cut, cut and cut little pieces of yellow yarn.
- It’s great cutting practice for those little fingers.
- Then we glued some of them onto our letter Y.
- Make a yarn puff ball. So easy and the little ball you end up with can be used for all sorts of games. Image from Art Projects for Kids.
- Cut a piece of cardboard about 2”x4” (the wider your cardboard, the bigger your puff ball)
- Start winding the yarn around and around the cardboard. Not too tightly or it’s hard to get off. The more you wind, the thicker and puffier the ball will be.
- Carefully slide the yard off, keeping it looped.
- Tie a piece of yard tightly around the middle and knot it a couple of times.
- Cut all of the loops and you have a puffy yard ball!
This is such a cute idea!!
