Alphabet Recognition Activities
I love incorporating Christmas activities in our literacy centers. Roll and colour activities are one of the very best activities you can use to engage young learners. I especially love that the children will benefit from these in many ways:
- Using fine motor skills to roll the dice.
- Building their colouring skills
- Numeracy skills by counting the number on the dice
- identifying their alphabet letters
To prepare:
- A4 paper
- Printer
- Scissors
- Dice
- Crayons
Print all pages in colour or greyscale and give a set to each group in your class. You can totally differentiate these alphabet printables – use the set of alphabet pages that would suit your learners.
How to play
Do you like to incorporate fun and hands-on alphabet matching or alphabet recognition activities?

Alphabet Matching Game using cookie sheets. Perfect for Christmas or during the holidays.
Christmas learning printable books for toddlers and preschoolers.
Once you’ve printed the pages you would like to use, place them on the group table for the kids to use. Be sure to show them how to play, by demonstrating the activity first.
Use a dice to show them how to roll, read the number on the dice, identify the matching code at the top and then find the corresponding letter on the reindeer and colour it.
A great way for kids to practice letter differentiation. These can be printed with 2 pages on one but they will be too small so I don’t recommend it.
You don’t need to use all the alphabet sets, you can choose groups of letter cards that you’re working on with your kids. The kids will LOVE using the dice and colouring set.

You could also totally turn this activity into a competitive group game by having two sets of the pages and have the kids compete to use the colouring dice to finish colouring all the reindeers and correctly identify the letters.
The group to finish the whole set with no mistakes (or least amount of) wins the competition!
