If you’re a parent, you know that introducing reading to your little one can be a challenging journey. Whether you’re guiding your kids through homeschooling or simply want to give them a head start before kindergarten, fostering pre-reading skills can begin as early as two or three years old. To create a language-rich atmosphere at home, engage them in conversations, read frequently, and highlight letters and words throughout your daily activities. Once your toddler or preschooler shows curiosity about reading, it’s time to dive into letter recognition. Kids learn best when they’re having fun, so we’ve compiled some exciting ideas for crafting with the letter D. Check out our selection of letter D activities below.

While you’ll see some repeated themes, like dogs, each craft offers a unique and enjoyable way to spend a weekday afternoon. Most of the materials you’ll need are likely already in your art supplies, making these activities easy to set up with minimal prep. Let’s jump in!
