ABC Matching Game

J has been very interested in letters lately so I decided that he would probably like a letter matching game.

It was super easy to make.

  • I typed up the alphabet using different colors for the letters.
  • Printed out 2 copies onto cardstock paper
  • Cut the letters out of one copy
  • Attached magnets to the back of each letter and to each sheet of letters.
  • I used an upside down cookie sheet for J to attach the magnet letters to.

J takes each letter and matches it to the letters on full sheets of paper.  Since they are magnetic they stay where J places them.

I hung it on the fridge so that J can play with it anytime. However, he really likes to play with it on the cookie sheet more than the fridge.  This has been a fun game that J continues to come back to over and over again.

    Nice and easy alphabet activity. I’ve been looking for work box ideas and this one would be super simple to make. I like that you added magnets to it. My kids get so frustrated when the the pieces move when they are playing with matching games.
