For this alphabet identification activity, your preschoolers and kindergarteners will first pick a grass card.

They will then say the name of the capital or lowercase letter on it as they “feed” it to the cow.

If your young learners have just started learning the names of the letters, start with just a few cards. You can add more as their letter knowledge increases.

They can also work on saying the letter sounds as they feed the cow.
