I can’t tell you how excited I am to be recommending Alphabet Crafts today. I think we all know how much I adore Allie at No Time For Flash Cards. Well guess what?!? Alphabet Crafts is HER BOOK!
That’s right. She just released Alphabet Crafts this week. It is an amazing e-book filled with the cutest crafts for letters of the alphabet. A lot of you are like me and have preschoolers and/or toddlers in your home. This book has crafts that would be great for both, while helping them learn their letters and phonics.
The coolest thing about this e-book (other than it was written by a mom for moms, is full of cute crafts, and it helps your child learn) is that it is only $8.00. No, that is not a typo. It is only $8.00!!
After reading this book I was inspired to do my own letter craft. I did not want to do one that Allie has done, because I really want you to buy the book. But this is “Allie inspired”.
We did W. W is for wheel.
We just used glue and wheel shaped pasta. He is concentrating so hard while putting the glue on. :-) By the way, that is a rhinoceros temporary tattoo on his cheek. That is where it HAD to be put.
Here is the information on the book:
Title: Alphabet Crafts
Author: Allison McDonald
Publisher: Memetales Publishing
Here is the link to get the e-book: http://www.notimeforflashcards.com/2010/03/ebook.html
To purchase the item you will need to right click the “Add to Cart” button and open in a new window or tab. But it will take you there and you will get to buy it for only $8.00!!!!!!
Disclosure: I did receive a free copy of this e-book to review. I asked Allie if I could do a post about it and she generously offered a free copy to review. I received no compensation for this post. I am supporting an immensely talented friend with her new project. I have strongly recommended Allie’s site, No Time For Flash Cards, before this book was published and I read her site every day.
This post is linked up with Feed Me Books Friday over at The Adventure of Motherhood. Janna hosts this meme as a great way for moms to share neat books with other moms. Go over and check it out. Why not share your recommendation, too?

I love this! I think we need to add it to our collection ASAP as we are starting to work on letters with my son.
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting my blog. Please let me know if you make the truck cake- I'd love to see it!
I love it! I'm a teacher and with my girls I'm doing the same with the alphabet.
ReplyDeleteHow fun! What a great book and I love her site too! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBTW, Cole was so cute concentrating on his gluing!
ooooo What a fun idea for a Friday Meme! I love the idea of using those wagon wheel pasta and glue!! I'll have to try that!! You always have such great ideas! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm sooooooo glad you shared this book and so proud and happy for Allie! Do you think my 22 month old would be ready? We paint and color but I'm not sure about trying these out yet. Does it print in color?
ReplyDeleteAllie is so talented! I love that she has finished her new book. I will definitely be checking it out!
ReplyDeleteShe has such fantastic crafts on her website. I once cut up a stack of cereal boxes and made every letter of the alphabet, but we haven't decorated them all yet!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Definitely going to have to check this out!
ReplyDeleteI love the wheel craft. Allie would definitely be proud! We're working on letters, too, so this book will be a must have!
