Grandma's Glasses Fingerplay
These are Grandma's glasses
This is Grandma's hat
This is the way she folds her hands
And puts them in her lap

These are Grandpa's glasses
This is Grandpa's hat
This is the way he folds his arms
Just like that!


My Letter G song--Printable Pre-K.

love for you
Read me a story
and I'll eat some cookies too
Special time I spend with you.

  1. Hi, thanks for the ideas for the letter G. Another way that I like to use is to cut the letters out of cardboard and use them as 'currency' to buy something from a pretend shop. I give a handful of letters and then ask my son for 2 x letter G's to buy a book.
