As the school year waves goodbye, it’s time for the Countdown to Summer Break with the ABCs! What better way to give a high-five to all our yearly triumphs than with a dazzling display of alphabet fun? Since we began our adventure with the alphabet, it seems only fitting to wrap it up in a similar A-to-Z style!
Feeling like you’re drowning in an ocean of countdown calendars for your kindergartners? Fear not! Here’s your life raft with fun suggestions for your ABC Countdown to Summer!
ABC Countdown Extravaganza!
Start by deciding your alphabet adventure—will you journey from A to Z or reverse the fun from Z to A? Since the school year kicks off with A, a backward trek could be a quirky way to revisit those ABCs!
Each day, launch with a group shindig like a poem, storytime, or morning message featuring the letter of the day. Make sure snacks and activities also join the alphabetical party!
Rope in your little learners and their families for the countdown bash. They might need to bring a themed treat, sport a letter-inspired outfit, or share a letter-related treasure from home. A handy handout will keep grown-ups in the loop and ready for the alphabet fun.
