Start it up
This is a print and play activity. Simply cut the hearts in half and then have your child match up the upper and lowercase letters.
Mr. R loves matching games. He is able to recognize all the letters already so he had no trouble with this activity.
Level up
Mixing up upper and lowercase pieces in the same pile will certainly extend play time. You could also ask your child to sound out the letter or name an object that begins with that letter as they are putting the hearts together. This will help them develop their reading skills.
