Take an Alphabet Hike

Letters are hiding on the ground, in the trees, on the water, and in the sky. When you look at the world a little differently, letter shapes pop out at you from everywhere.

Ready to go on an alphabet hunt?

Go outside with your eyes open wide.
Start by looking for the letters in your first name. Found them all? Now try the rest of the alphabet.
To see something new, try a different view.
Lie on your back and look up at the sky. Get down low on your hands and knees. Stand on your head to see an upside-down scene.
Over, under, all around. Up high and on the ground.
Letters can be hiding almost anywhere.
Examine the patterns in clouds, mud, and snow; in branches and leaves; in sunlight and shadow.
Look at big shapes and small ones. Use binoculars or a magnifying glass to really zoom in.
As you discover every letter, a picture will help you remember it better. Carry a camera or sketchbook and take your letters home as photos or drawings.
