Dangerous alphabet for kids
Here’s the first four letters of a dangerous alphabet for kids (well, mainly boys). I thought it would be fun to have each letter depict an amusing scenario containing a touch of violence or misfortune, nothing too serious, ants getting burnt with magnifying glasses, that sort of thing. Eventually I thought I could use the letters to create name plates or greeting cards. So if you like them give me some encouragement and I’ll persevere with the rest of the alphabet. Oh… and I’d also be happy to take suggestions for the other letters.
It turns out that this is also a fantastic kids activity, my son (Dylan) has really got into it. You might need to help them choose and spell the words, but after that it should keep them busy for hours, well, there are 26 letters! For further ideas and inspiration check out Dylan’s alphabet for boys.

On the stumble upon opening site you Skip E
I just thought of a great idea = S for skate park – it’s the perfect shape!
Awesome! could you do them in lower case too? I’m a teacher and this would be so much better than the usual alphabets. You could get it made into a wall chart, I’d definitely buy one. Only thing is it needs to have the upper and lower case really.
