The Mom I Want to Be

Printable Alphabet Letters (optional)
Heavy Paper or Cardstock
Magazines
Glue Stick or Zip Dry Glue
Crayons or Markers
Hole Puncher and Ribbon or a Stapler
Scissors

This project can be as hard or as simple as you want it! The idea is to create your own alphabet book. Each page will feature a different letter of the alphabet. You can use the entire alphabet or use select letters, such as the letters in your name.

Print out alphabet letter templates onto your heavy paper or cardstock, (or freehand large outlines of the letters). Once you have all of your letters, page through magazines and find pictures of objects that start with that letter. Cut out the pictures and glue them onto the correct pages. Label each picture if you like. You could even write a little story for each letter.

Once all of the glue has dried on your pages, you can put the pages of the book in the proper order bind them together. You can staple the edge of the pages together or punch holes down the side and tie the pages together with ribbon. Don’t forget to make a cover and even a credits page!
