Axolotl Puppet

This adorable axolotl craft is not only a great way to introduce the letter A, but it’s also a fun way to talk about a unique animal. Did you know that this animal is also sometimes called a dog fish? Find the full craft tutorial and free template HERE.

A is for Alligator

A is for Alligator is a classic. For little ones, precut the pieces for your alligator using the free alligator template (also referred to as crocodile). Depending on your child’s skill level, you may also need to help with the accordion folding. Then just glue it all together. Find the full craft tutorial and grab the free craft template HERE.

A is for Acorn

These acorn puppets are simple to put together and even more fun to play with once they’re created. Each has its own unique personality. Find the full craft tutorial and the free craft tutorial HERE.

A is for Apple

Keep this apple craft simple by using crayons instead of paint or starting with an already colored plate as the base for your craft. My favorite part is the worm wiggling out of the apple. Find the full craft tutorial and free template HERE.

Angel Card

This angel craft is a little more complex than some of the other crafts in the list. So, be sure to prep the pieces in advance and let your little one simply decorate the gown of the angel. You can write a little letter ‘A’ poem on the scroll that the angel is holding. Find the full craft tutorial HERE.
