Christmas "What Am I?" riddle card game for K to 1st grade: 12 three-clue riddle cards and 12 picture cards to match, from holly to a sled. Part of our Christmas holiday activities collection.

How do I use this resource?

Cut the cards apart and lay the picture cards face up. A grown-up reads one riddle at a time while children find the matching picture; it also works as a small-group center.

What students will practice

  • Gives Kindergarten students seasonal counting, vocabulary, and fine-motor activities themed around Christmas and Easter.
  • Builds early counting and matching skills alongside coloring and cutting practice that strengthens pencil control.
  • Works as low-pressure seasonal filler for the days around a holiday break, not core skill instruction.

These are written for Kindergarten to 1st Grade students, roughly ages 5-7. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.

Can I use these Christmas resources for homeschool?

⌄

Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a Kindergarten to 1st Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
