[Kindergarten Prep Team](https://kindergarten-prep.com/blog/author/kindergarten-prep-team) Oct 11, 2026 --- A child's own name is the first word that matters to them, and most of the crafts on this page spell it.

Clear it and try again. ## All about me crafts: names, hands and family Write the child's name on a card and set it in front of them before the name crafts. A three matches letters to the card. A four or five starts to write them. A three can tear the brown and green paper for the coconut tree and glue the pieces down. Cutting hearts and drawing a whole family needs an adult beside them. Say each letter as it goes on, first letter first. The coconut tree makes the order visible, since the letters climb from the bottom up. The name crafts go on the bedroom door or in a school folder. Family stick puppets live in a cup on the table and come out for play. Leaf people work outdoors on a fall walk. ## What you need for all about me crafts Most of these use the same handful of supplies: black marker, white glue, white paper, glue stick, big leave, short thin twig, coloured paper, long strip of white paper. Everything else is named on the craft it belongs to.
