Making Letters with Duplo Blocks

Today's boredom buster was trying to make letters out of Duplo blocks.

How can we make an E?

Success!  For older children, you can discuss which letters you can make with the blocks and why (straight lines vs. curves).  

We used our magnetic letters for inspiration.

Then E quickly got bored, saying, "No (insert whatever letter we were trying to make)," and went on to building a town.  I let her attention take the lead.
