Uppercase and lowercase letters are a lot less boring when apples, pumpkins, leaves, and acorns get involved. These fall letter matching worksheets give 4-6 year olds a few different ways to find the matching letters, so they’re not doing the exact same thing page after page.

And when you need another activity for the next center, our preschool worksheets have more printable practice for early learners. There are lots of seasonal options too, which makes planning around a theme much easier.

Autumn Letter Matching 

I really like that the matching changes from page to page. Kids might color the correct lowercase letter on one worksheet, draw lines between matching pumpkins on another, then pull out the scissors for the acorn page. Same letter skill, completely different job.

That makes these especially useful for fall literacy centers. Kids are still working on uppercase and lowercase letter recognition, but the leaves and pumpkins make it feel more like an October activity than plain alphabet practice.

The pages also mix in coloring, cutting, and gluing, depending on which one you use. It’s an easy way to give kids repeated letter-matching practice without handing them four worksheets that all look and work exactly alike.

Acorn Letter Match

Little hands will have a blast matching uppercase and lowercase letters on this cut-and-paste page. Every snip with the scissors and dab of glue helps strengthen fine motor skills. With eight letters to match, there’s plenty to keep little learners happily busy from beginning to end.

Pumpkin Letter Match

For this one, all kiddos need is a pencil to connect each uppercase letter to its lowercase partner. Drawing one line at a time improves pencil control through simple practice. Before they know it, the sheet is filled with lines that show just how much they’ve learned.

Match The Letters On The Apples

Finding the matching lowercase letter is even more fun when crayons are involved. Looking closely at all three choices encourages focus and attention to detail, making children think carefully before locking in and coloring their answer. And once all the matching is finished, the apples are ready for any color, pattern, or silly design they can dream up.

Match The Letters On The Fall Leaves

Kids grab their favorite crayons because autumn also means letter-hunt season! Each row lets children search for the lowercase letter that matches the uppercase one, giving their memory and thinking skills a good workout. They’ll be wearing the biggest grin once the page is filled with the right answers.

Fall Character Crafts

Squirrel Name Craft – Apparently squirrels aren’t the only ones collecting acorns in fall. With this idea, kids add a letter to each acorn and arrange them to spell their name beside the squirrel. Seeing their own name turn into the squirrel’s little acorn collection is such a cute way to work on letter order.

We’ve provided an editable template that lets you enter your child’s name before printing, but you can also choose the blank version if you’d like them to write the letters themselves for some extra handwriting work. 

Silly Pumpkin Craft – The teeth are what make this pumpkin work. Kids put together a goofy pumpkin face with big eyes, teeth, cheeks, and a tongue, so there’s absolutely no reason for every pumpkin to end up looking the same. The sillier the expression gets, the better.

Bad Apple Book Craft – Mac and Will get to come right off the pages with this activity. Kids make the apple and worm characters from Bad Apple: A Tale of Friendship, then they can use the finished pair to act out parts of the story. Will peeking through the apple might be my favorite detail.

Scarecrow Cat Craft – A cat dressed like a scarecrow? Yep, that combination works surprisingly well. This project gives the cat a scarecrow hat, patches, and straw details, and kids can choose the colors for the outfit. Drawing on the little stitch marks makes it look even more like a patched-together fall costume.

The chicken in The Scarecrow’s Hat is already determined to get that hat, so giving kids more to do with the characters after reading feels fitting. These The Scarecrow’s Hat activities include a cut-and-paste pattern page where kids figure out which character comes next. The book characters make a much better fall pattern than another row of plain shapes.
