Following up from Αα from Δδ - colouring pages, in today's post you can find the letters Εε to Ιι and funny pictures for your little one to colour!
You can collect all the pages - more letters to follow - and make a colouring booklet for your child. You can take it with you wherever you go and let her learn the letters through colouring! Help your preschooler remember the words by repeating them and asking him to point at them when you read them out loud.
Use this link to download the printables. Another idea would be to print them out in A5, both sides. You will end up with a smaller booklet, easier to carry even in your little one's bag! :)

Αα - Δδ: Colour the pictures
Preschoolers enjoy colouring a lot! I know mine does! Now it is the time to experiment with lots of different colours and through them learn new concepts. Why not learn the Greek letters this way?
This is the first of a series of printables for your child. She will come across a new letter on each page plus a few words which start with that letter accompanied by an image to colour. Today's printable is for letters Αα to Δδ. You could make this into a small booklet when we reach the last set of letters. Just print all the letters, plus a cover page and staple or bind them to make a small booklet! You could also use this booklet as a travel colouring book which will entertain your child when out and about! This exercise is mainly for preschoolers who have just started learning the letters. You can help them memorise the sounds by repeating the words and the letter they begin with.

What to do with Αα?
Let's start with Αα.
You can print out this Giant A and colour it, paint it, lace it, do some collage with confetti, magazine cut outs, coloured rice or even lentils with your kid! This is a great exercise for including younger kids too!
For older kids you can try and fit as many Aa's as possible in one page! It is important to not try and correct your child's writing at an early stage, just encourage her to write more and make sure you print out one for yourself to show her the right way of writing it!
Feeling adventurous? Try and fill in the missing letter here! Of course it is always the letter Αα in this particular file. This gives older kids a sense of accomplishment as they manage to both write the letter and complete a word!
You can use the pictures to play the game of naming the picture. Kids identify the object and relate it to the initial letter. This will help them remember the letters, what they look like and connect them to a particular sound, the sound of that letter. Maya and I use these cards to play when we are out and about and we need some good and educational distraction!
