Egg Rhyming Sort

Phonemic awareness is an important skill for kids to learn during the preschool and kindergarten years, and rhyming is one of those skills! I love finding new and unique ways to incorporate rhyming into my lesson plans, and this activity is perfect for that! This free printable Egg Rhyming Sort is an excellent way to help preschoolers and kindergarteners practice letter recognition and beginning sounds.

The free printable is presented with two different options, an Easter basket or a bird’s nest, so you can decide whether to incorporate the activity into your Easter theme activities or another theme.

This Egg Rhyming Sort activity works great during small groups, centers, or as an independent task during your Easter theme or spring activities.

Egg Rhyming Sort

Decide whether you will use the basket or egg sorting mats. If using the sorting mats, print enough copies for the number of rhyming sets you are using. 

Alternatively, you can use real easter baskets, regular baskets, or DIY “nests” made out of crumpled paper bags. 

Print the egg pages. Laminate for extended use.

Quick Tips

When introducing the activity take time to discuss the vocabulary for each object pictured on the eggs so kids are familiar.

You can make the eggs self-checking by stamping or adding a matching sticker to the back of each set.

For kids who are ready to stretch and spell CVC words, let them write some of the rhyming words on a piece of paper or in a writing journal.
