My preschooler loves matching games. So I like to play off of that passion whenever possible, especially when it comes to fostering phonemic awareness skills.
I created this Mitten Rhyme Match game to complement our winter themed activities in January. The matching game includes 8 pairs of colorful mittens. Each mitten depicts a familiar picture with high quality clip art.
Preschoolers can look at each picture, say the name out loud and match the mittens according to their rhymes.
If you are short on time, this matching game can be cut into rectangular cards with the paper cutter and used as a typical matching concentration game. I decided to cut the game into the shape of the mitten and set up a “clothesline” for my preschooler to hang his matches on. He LOVED this!
Our “clothesline” was just a string tied under the canopy of our Melissa and Doug grocery store. You can set a clothesline up just about anywhere. It doesn’t have to be fancy!
Emmett was very proud of his finished product and asked to leave the “clothesline” up so he could do it again later. Of course I said yes!
