These 52 frugal (not free) printable letter recognition worksheets (PDF downloads) are an easy and effective, fun and frugal way to reinforce the ABCs in your child’s mind.
Think fast—how do you teach your child his or her ABCs? Probably the first method that comes to mind is the alphabet song. If so, no judgement; I’m not hear to knock the alphabet song, but I am here to suggest there may be a better option.
*cough* Printables. *cough* 😉
While the alphabet song can help your child learn the order of the ABCs, it really does not help him or her build visual association and recognition, which are both important for building pre-reading and pre-writing skills.

Don’t worry though; these preschool letter recognition worksheets can help!
The frugal (not free) printable letter recognition worksheets (PDF downloads) are designed to help your child begin associating the names of letters (“A,” “B,” “C,” etc.) with their visual representation. (What does the letter A look like?) There are 52 separate sheets, one for each letter of the alphabet, in both upper and lowercase form. In other words, there is a letter “A” recognition worksheet for preschoolers and a letter “a” recognition worksheet for preschoolers.
