Have you ever tried salt writing with your preschooler? It is a fun and easy way to make writing and learning letters so much fun! We love that it accesses the kinesthetic learning style and provides a multi-sensory way to learn about letters. We’ve added a fun Easter twist and even included a free download for you below!

You will need:

Plastic Easter Eggs (get them at the dollar store or Amazon here)
Letter Manipulatives (or print out the free Easter egg letters download below!)
Salt
Tray (find one at the dollar store or an old cookie sheet will work, too!)
