What to Do
Begin by downloading and printing the Peppermint Candies Matching Game – Uppercase and Lowercase. We recently signed up for the HP Instant Ink program and are loving it! They offer several different plans (such as $4.99 for 100 pages a month) and will automatically send you new cartridges before you even need them. We are now saving SO MUCH money (and time) on ink and I don’t feel guilty printing out new printables and playdough mats each day. If you want to check it out, ordering through our link here will give you 3 free months. You can use just about any HP printer but we’ve been using this compact one and absolutely love it! The color is gorgeous and matches my decor (we’ll call that a win!) and the size is smaller than any printer I’ve ever owned which is great for small spaces (or living room/dining room offices). Between HP Instant Ink and our compact printer, my printing life truly has become so much easier to print all these fun playdough mats and activity sheets we’ve been making lately.

Printing, Laminating, and Preparing the Peppermint Candies Matching Game
Begin by printing out your peppermint candy letter sheets. Then, laminate and cut out the candies. We designed these so that you could use a 1.5″ circle punch but you could also cut them out by hand if you don’t have or don’t want to purchase a punch.
Once you’ve cut your peppermint candies out, it’s time to have some fun!

Begin by sorting the letters by color (lowercase letters are in green, uppercase letters are in red). Next, invite your child to match the lowercase letter with its uppercase letter. You could also ask your child to see how many words they can spell with the peppermint candy cards or to place them all in alphabetical order.
