An activity that engages you brain and your body!

Game Rules: 
In this cross-curricular activity we integrate the learning of the alphabet into an active game. Begin by writing the letters of the alphabet on a ball. With an alphabet ball you can play many letters learning active and adapt the game depending on the age of the children you are working with. You can play a catch game were children say the first letter they see on the ball out loud after catching it.
