Next, your kids will sort through the puzzle pieces with the pictures on them and find the one that has a picture that begins with that sound.
Then, your children will put the two pieces together to make a Christmas tree.
Your beginning readers will continue to match the letters to the correct pictures until they have put all the Christmas tree puzzles together.
If your kids are just starting to learn the sounds that the letters make, start with just a few puzzles. You can then add more as they learn and become confident.
