Letter of the Week Snack: G is for Green
Hi, everyone! It’s Chrissy from The Taylor House, I am so excited to be here at Crystal & Comp to share some fun Letter snack ideas with you. This is week seven of our Letter of the Week Snack ideas for preschoolers and this week is the letter “G”.
Letter of the week snacks are a great way to start introducing letters to your kids at a young age by sharing the alphabet with them in a fun and unique way. What child wouldn’t love to have fun snacks like these?
Another great idea is to use these snacks in your kids classrooms or if you homeschool. Have them coordinate their snack with the letter they are learning that week. I think a teacher would love this idea and having another way to incorporate the letter into their lesson plan.
You can also use these snacks during the summer months as unique snack ideas for your kids.
Today we are focusing on the letter G and the word Green. I have created a Green Crispy Rice snack idea for kids.
How To Make The Letter Of The Week Green Snack
Materials you will need:
- Crispy Rice Cereal
- Marshmallows
- Butter
- Sprinkles
- Food Coloring
Letter of the Week Step by Step Tutorial:
Step 1 – Place 10 ounces of marshmallows and 1 Tablespoon of Butter in a microwave safe bowl and microwave for about a minute

Are there letter of the week crafts for J-Z?.. I love them, they are soo cute!
For the snacks, we have A-G done so far and we add a new letter of the week snack each week.
We also have letter of the week crafts as well that are perfect alphabet activities for preschoolers. We have letters A-I done and each Tuesday a new craft is introduced until we make it to the letter Z.
Just search the tag Letter of the Week and you will see all of the crafts. Or, click on the educational section of the Nav Bar and you will see the Letter of the Week Activities there as well.
Great recipe! Just wanted to make you aware that under the steps with the pictures where you are supposed to add the rice crispys it says add 6 cups of butter instead of 6 cups of rice crispys.
Thanks for bringing that to our attention, Kelsie. We fixed it.
