Cr Blend Words Worksheet for Preschoolers: Read & Match!
This worksheet has children read words starting with the 'cr' blend, like 'crab' or 'crayon,' and then match each one to its picture, building both decoding skill and the vocabulary connection between a written word and a real object. For ages three to five, hearing and producing the blended 'cr' sound also improves overall speech clarity, since blended consonants are often among the later sounds children master.

How to use this worksheet
Read the 'cr' blend words on the page aloud together first, sounding out the blended 'kuh-ruh' sound clearly at the start of each one. Have your child look at the pictures next to each word and decide which one matches what they just read. Ask them to circle the picture that matches the word, double-checking the word one more time before committing to an answer. Continue through the remaining words on the page, reading and circling as you go.
