Have the children do the same with their finger. Have children trace inside the letter with a red or black coloring pencil, marker or crayon after finger tracing. 3. Fingerprints Ants marching Letter A: Use a red or black washable ink pad or dip fingers in paint to make ten fingerprint ants "marching" up and down the sides of the upper case letter A ant hill (five ants on each side) -- count out loud.
