Today I’m continuing my show and tell series with show and tell letter T ideas.
General Show and Tell Tips:
- Look through your kid’s stuffed animals and action figures. Sometimes you can find a character whose name starts with the letter that you need.
- Look through your child’s books. You might find a book with a title that begins with the letter that you need
- When all else fails have your kiddo take in an alphabet block with the letter on it or a an alphabet letter magnet.
- My son once took in a picture that he colored from a coloring book. The picture was of something that started with the letter of the week and he loved showing off his artwork during share time.
And this won’t help you think of anything but this last tip will help keep you out of a bind-
My #1 Show and Tell Tip
Set a reminder on your phone for the night before show and tell.
That way you won’t forget and scramble to find something in your car while you wait in the drop off line for school. Yes, yes that did happen to me. Don’t be me. You’re better than that!

Haha I would totally send a real tomato with my child (if it was an unusually big or plump one). If we grew them ourselves, even better!!! Great way to promote eating those veggies too! Awesome ideas as always Cat!!

I think it would be awesome to have them bring in a tomato from the garden but I’d worry a little about my boys squashing it in their bookbags 🙂
