First Letter Fun: Identify and Write! Vocabulary Worksheet
Naming everyday objects and writing their opening letter builds vocabulary alongside phonics for 3-5 year olds — each picture requires your child to first recall or recognize the object's name, then isolate just its first sound, and finally translate that sound into a written symbol. This vocabulary-first framing makes the worksheet especially useful for children who are still building the words for common objects, not just the letters that start them.

How to use this worksheet
Look at each picture and ask your child to name it before doing anything else — if the word isn't familiar, say it together a few times. Once they know the word, ask them to listen for the very first sound in it. Have them write that letter in the space provided, saying the sound again as they write. Move through all the pictures this way, then read back the full list of first letters together at the end.
