Letter Ring Activities
Dear Parents,
Below are some suggested activities that you can do with the letter cards on your child’s
letter ring. Remember that this list is not exhaustive- the possibilities are endless of
what you can do to help your child learn letters and their sounds. The most important
part is to have fun while learning! 
Letter and Sound Recognition
Flash a letter card (either upper or lower case) and have your child tell you the name of
the letter and the sound it makes.
ABC Order
For this activity, you can make your own letter cards if your child does not have a full
set on their ring. Have your child put the letters in alphabetical order. Try it with both
the upper and lower case letters of the alphabet.
Matching Upper and Lower Case Letters
For this activity, you can make your own set of letters; one for upper case and one for
lower case. Have your child match the upper case letter cards to the lower case letter
cards.
Think of a Word
Show your child a letter card and have them think of a word (or words) that being with
that letter or sound.
Letter Writing
Using the letter flash cards, have your child trace the letter using their finger and then
have them write the letter on a piece of paper, practicing proper letter formation. You
can even purchase a white board from the dollar store or Walmart, and have them
practice using whiteboard markers. Try other writing utensils too!
Magnetic Letters
Using magnetic letters and a cookie sheet (or fridge), have your child put letters in
order and say the name/sound of the letter while they do it. (Magnetic letters can be
found at Toys R’ Us or the dollar store)
