The importance of instilling the concept of...
V for vampire. Create this easy vampire letter craft with your children to re-inforce the shape and sound of the letter V. Let children pretend to be vampires getting ready for Halloween night with our fun vampire song and movement activity.
What you need:
Blue or purple craft paper
Black craft paper
Red craft paper
White craft paper
Orange or yellow craft paper
Black marker
Scissors

What you do:
In advance, draw a large triangle shape on the black craft paper. Cut out two strips out of the red craft paper. Cut a circle out of the white craft paper. Cut one large, and four small triangles out of the black craft paper.
Together with the children look a the letter V together and describe its shape. Let children create a letter V with the two red strips. Talk about that the shape almost looks like a triangle standing on it's tip. Next, let children cut out the large triangle and glue it on the blue or purple craft paper.
Next, demonstrate to children how to glue the red strips letter V on top of the triangle.
Next, demonstrate how to glue the triangles on the white circle. Let dry.
Cut off the excess paper and glue the vampire's head on the paper as shown.
Add white hands to the cape, and triangle shoes to the bottom of the letter V.
Next, let children draw eyes, a nose, a mouth, and vampire teeth on the head with the black marker.
Encourage children to decorate their vampires with buttons or a necklace.
Last, write or let children copy and write the word vampire to the top of the paper.
