We are learning the letter C this week. And here is a super simple letter C craft: Crazy Car Crash!!! All you need for this craft is the letter C craft printable by Kidz Activities, glue stick and scissors. As a craft for preschool kids, let them cut the cars out by themselves and stick them on the letter C template to form the letter. As a craft for toddlers, you would have to pre-cut the cars for them and let them stick the cars on their own.
Allow your child to apply the glue stick by themselves, so that they ‘trace’ the letter. This helps them with letter recognition and prepares them for writing as well.
The best thing about this craft is that there is no method or proper way to do it. The more chaotic the cars are, whether they are stuck on top of each other or upside down, the more we achieve the ‘Crazy Car Crash!!!’
Here are other ways to play with the letter C craft printable. Have your child form the letter C with other things like colourful crayons or actual toy cars. As you do the activity with your child, keep mentioning words that start with the ‘C’ sound.
UPDATE: One of our readers requested for a black and white version of the cars, so that they can print the cars on coloured paper using only black ink. We thought it was a great suggestion, so here is the Letter C Craft Printable in Black and White.

Do you happen to have the car printable in just black & white outline to print on colored paper instead of using colored ink?
