My mother teaches elementary school students basic English.One day I asked her: from what point do you start teaching English for children?
She replied: to begin with, I let them interested in the alphabet forms.
I: how do you do that?
Mom: for example, I ask the children questions like "what is the cutest alphabet in your eyes?"what is the coolest alphabet and why?", thus let them focus on the forms.
After that, I made stories about the alphabets, like:
c, o, a were nice friends in their childhood (or the lower case), because they felt they had some similarities in their forms. But c felt that it lacked something, admiring the perfect shape of o. On the other hand, o considered itself boring form without any traits, and it felt that it had an emptiness inside. o wanted to be like a, who had more added forms compared with o. a was the number one among them.
When they grew up (or capitalized) ", they met in coincidence C and O could recognize the old friends immediately, then said "you haven't changed since childhood". Then they found a unfamiliar alphabet and asked who it is. The mysterious alphabet answered:"I am A, but I'm not old myself anymore. I abandoned my past. I sharpened myself"
Surprised C and O asked why.
