Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Alphabet Tree

8.16.2018

Create your own Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Tree with letter stamps!  Preschool & Kindergartners will love making their own alphabet tree!

I love being able to provide my children with plenty of manipulatives to use in our homeschool activities, that's why I shamelessly have a closet full of containers and bags of all sorts of Dollar Store finds, educational "tools," and more!   

We have pouch caps, paint chips, and popsicle sticks! 

LEGOs, glass gems, playdough, and letter stamps!

Such items are great for learning math or the alphabet.  Pair such items with a wonderful children's book, and you've made a fun learning activity like this Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Tree Art Activity!

With the help of our alphabet stamp set and one of our favorite alphabet books, we made our own Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Alphabet Tree.

After reading Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, gather these materials: 


On a white sheet of cardstock, encourage your child to paint a palm tree using brown paint for the trunk and green paint for the leaves {we are loving Crayola's Glitter Paint!!  Adds sparkle without the glittery mess!}.

Add a few brown coconuts if you wish, too!

When the trees are nearly dry, set out the alphabet stamps.

We have read Chicka Chicka Boom Boom plenty of times, so we have the story line memorized by now!


With your preschooler, recite {or try} or read the story again and stamp the alphabet as you go along!


If you have younger ones, let them pick and choose the letter stamps at random.  They will have fun working with the stamp pad and watching the letter appear after they dab it in ink!

 It turned out to be a super cute craft to practice letter recognition using stamps!

Later on, you could always use the craft as an assessment or have child stamp the lowercase letters by the uppercase {or vice versa}.

Alternatively, you could write your child's name somewhere on their Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Tree and have your child use the just the letter stamps that make up their own name.

And here are our Chick Chicka Boom Boom Tree creations!  


Little Sis (4) top Left, Big Brother (8) top Right, Little Brother (3) bottom right, and mine is bottom left.  Never planned on having four stamp crafts, but everyone else always wants to join in somebody else's activity around here!
