Alphabet Flash Card Game

(Boise, ID)
Although this may be a little advanced for one year olds, it is still fun for them to play and maybe you have a few toddlers at the party too.
Arrange some of the alphabet flash cards in ascending order. Ask your child to close their eyes. Quickly remove one card from the arranged ones. Now ask your child to open their eyes and find out which one is missing.
Of course, you will have to help them figure out the missing card, but when you are able to get them to repeat what you have said, encourage them by giving them a hug.
