It's funny, I've never really been much of a cereal and milk kinda gal, but I DO remember that growing up, we always had Alpha-Bits cereal in our house. Actually, my mom is STILL a huge fan!  I also remember shoving handfuls of Alpha-Bits into my mouth as a wonderful snack option.  Today, not much has changed.  Well, except for that now I'm lovingly sharing in that tradition with my own kids.

Jacob is a B-I-G fan of Alpha-Bits cereal and recently I made up a fun little printable activity sheet for kids that is just perfect for celebrating fall fun.

Trying to fit in teaching basic preschool skills like letters, shapes, and numbers, can sometimes be a challenge for me while trying to take care of a busy household, a 7 month-old, and the countless other things we have going on.  So, I absolutely love that Alpha-Bits cereal makes my job just a little bit easier and more fun.  Jacob loves finding and identifying all of the letters in our box of Alpha-Bits cereal.  

The printable activity sheet shows four fall themed objects and spaces to spell out the name of each.  The objects include a leaf, pumpkin, football, and turkey.  Of course, being the sports freak that he is, Jacob insisted we start with the football.  And, me being the football freak I am, I couldn't argue!

In our household, Alpha-Bits cereal brings together two of the most necessary parts of life – eating and learning! How could you possibly go wrong?  While what I love most is that my son practices his pre-reading skills with this activity, he would certainly argue that the best part is finishing up and getting to "clean up the mess". . .
