Letter Recognition Game for Preschoolers

Going Fishing for Letters is a super fun Letter Recognition Game for Preschool or Kindergarten age. 

This is a great letter recognition game I put together and we have used it in many different ways.

Things you’ll need to Play this Letter Recognition Game:

• large baby formula can or coffee can will work.
• baby jar lids (enough for each letter and/or number)
• stickers- blank or already with letters and/or numbers
• fishing pole (we found ours at the dollar store)

On each lid put a sticker with a letter, number or anything you would like to teach. I used all the letters of the alphabet. Cut a slit in the top of the formula can so they can put them in after they are done. The can works well for the clink sound…They love that:)  Next we take turns fishing. The fishing poles have magnets on them.

A few ways to play this Letter Recognition Game:

• Call out a letter and see if they can catch that fish.
• Call out a word and see if they catch the fish with the beginning or ending sound.
• Have them free fish and tell you about their catch- what is the letter, sound or even a word that begins or ends with that letter.

The girls really enjoyed this and I think it is important to keep learning fun and interesting  for them.
