In this episode, Alex shares a simple, low-prep way to celebrate the end of the year with an Alphabet Party. If you’re feeling the end-of-year crunch, these easy ideas still feel fun and special without adding more to your plate.

You’ll learn:

  • Simple ways to turn snacks or manipulatives into hands-on learning activities
  • Easy games like Alphabet Bingo and a “mystery letter” game
  • How to keep the day engaging with songs — without things feeling chaotic

💡 This episode is a reminder that it’s not about how big the party is, but the energy you bring to it.
