When you are walking or driving, point out signs and symbols like the Pizza Hut logo or simple writing that your children may recognize. Noticing that signs and symbols are all around is part of print awareness, knowing that print has meaning. Many fun activities can introduce children to written words.
Activity: Read “Hi, Pizza Man!” by Virginia Walter and/or recite the pizza rhyme below. Talk about print in the environment; make a pizza sign if you like.
The pizza is hot,
The pizza is cold.
The pizza is on the plate,
Nine days old.
Some like it hot,
Some like it cold,
Some like it on the plate,
Nine days old.
