Christmas 2020 is just around the corner! Can you believe it?
For me, this means it’s time to head to Trader Joe’s and grab $1 chocolate advent calendars for everyone before they’re all gone.

As the holiday approaches, I am gathering Christmas picture books to read and fun holiday activities to do with kids to celebrate the season.
Today, I am sharing newly created Christmas matching cards that young children will enjoy playing with.

How to Use Christmas Matching Cards
Print the cards onto quality card stock, cut out each card, and laminate for durability.
Shuffle the cards. Next, place the cards face down in columns and rows. This is is a good opportunity to explain to young children the difference between a column and a row.
Once the cards are set up, have the child turn over any two cards. Turn the two cards back over if they don’t match. If they do match, the child should keep the two matching cards.

The child should observe carefully and work to remember each card during the other player’s turn. When all the cards are matched, the game is over.
