Fine Motor Alphabet Match for Spring

Preschool Activity for Spring - ABC Match

Fine motor lowercase and capital letter match for spring

I think it's safe to say that we've gotten our money's worth out of these foam flowers!  They have been the perfect manipulative for J-Bug's preschool activities this spring.  We've used them on our alphabet sticky wall and for our alphabet flower hunt.  Today I'm sharing how we used them for a fine motor alphabet match.  Since I already had the foam flowers and the clothespins with letters, no prep time was needed for this simple preschool activity.
