S for Sun

Sunshine and the letter S share this bright page: a large uppercase S stands next to a round smiling sun, its wavy and pointed rays spreading out all around and a cheerful face beaming in the middle. The bold simple shapes are made for young children learning that S says "sun," with a big round center and chunky rays that are easy to fill. Pairing the letter with something warm and happy makes the sound easy to remember. Our Sun is actually a star — the closest one to Earth — and its light takes about eight minutes to reach us. Color it the usual yellow and orange, or try a sunset of pink and red. Give the letter S its own bright shade so it shines too. Print on US Letter or A4 and let a little sunshine onto your page.
