A is For Apple - Learning Alphabetical Order With Fruits and Vegetables

Here's an ABC order activity for the new spellers in your family:  Can you think of one fruit or vegetable that begins with each letter of the alphabet?  Ooh - harder than it looks, huh?

I started this project with my little ones this week, and we're making each letter into a fruit or vegetable.  This takes an awful lot of creativity!  Start by making a list of one fruit or vegetable for each letter.  Once that's done, you can brainstorm with the kids on ways to make the pictures.  (Use the internet for ideas!)  If nothing else, it will teach the kids a little about ABC order. but hopefully they'll learn enough to count this as a nutrition lesson too!  You could even stretch your art curriculum with a fun project like this.    

So let's see....A is for Apple, B is for Banana, C is for Carrot, D is for....???
