My children adore matching games – from preschool all the way up to my first grader!
Besides the fact that they’re just plain fun, matching games have so much educational benefit. They are a frequent flyer during our homeschool week.
Match Game Packet
Today’s Preschool Printable includes 3 different Match Game sets – zoo animals, transportation vehicles, and fruit.
To prepare the games, first print them on your printer. Laminate them if your kiddos are going to play with them over and over for longer durability. Then cut them apart on the gray lines.
Use the Match Games sets to play a Memory-style game with your preschooler. If your child is very young, simply lay them face up and let your child choose the ones that match.
If your child is a little older, he can possibly play a more traditional style of Match Game, turning them all face down.
If you and your child need a change of pace, you can mix all three Match Game sets together and use this as a sorting/classifying activity.

May 14, 2016 at 11:02 pmI find it so sad that today’s children don’t know anything at all about the old nursery rhymes or stories. Do you think that you can print a story from, say Mother Goose, and matching cards so that the children can match the characters and, as an alternate game, mix the cards with those from 2 or 3 stories and have the child pick out the characters for a particular story?
