ABC Word Animal Crafts PRINTABLE
Animal Letter Crafts are of course super popular! To expend on this theme, we have created this super special and fun Animal Word Craft Set! All As coloring pages or in full color – depending on your time and resources. Both preschoolers and kids will LOVE to color these in, cut out the individual letters and assemble the Animal Words!
Such a fun way to explore each letter of the alphabet with your young chargers! You could combine these with some sight word coloring pages too.

So, when you are working on your letter of the week activity with your kindergarten kids or preschoolers, why not up the game and check out these benefits of using our Animal Word Craft printables:
- exploring the letters of the alphabet (of course!)

Each animal has two printable versions – a full color version adn a coloring page version. HEre you can see the OWL word printable. As you can see the owl is made from the letters O, W and L (in lower case) with some additional owl specific features, such as the owl eyes and wing feathers!
