If you don’t have plastic links, you can make your own. First, cut a pipe cleaner into pieces that are about 2 0r 3 inches long.

How To Use The Snow Globe Letter Matching Activity:
First, your pre-readers will pick a capital letter snow globe card and say the name of the letter on it.
Next, your kids will sort through the cards to find the matching lowercase letter.
After finding the matching capital and lowercase letter cards, your children will connect them together using plastic links.
Your preschoolers will continue sorting, matching, and connecting the cards until they have matched all the capital and lowercase letters together.
If your pre-readers have just started learning the names of the letters, have them start with just a few cards. You can then add more as their letter knowledge increases.
Your preschoolers will work on letter recognition and fine motor skills as they connect the letter cards together in this winter-themed Snow Globe Letter Match Activity!
