Instructions:
On a window or mirror, write your child nameβs, leaving some space between each letter, using a dry erase marker or paint stick. Cut out flowers from the craft foam and use the permanent marker to write a letter in your childβs name on the flowers. First, spray each letter on the window with water in a spray bottle. Talk about the letters and what they spell. Next, match the foam flower letters to the letters on the window or mirror. The water will allow the foam to stick.
Tip- you could also do this activity in the bathtub using bath crayons!
