Fall Matching Game for Toddlers

N is all about the matching games right now! I can’t even make them fast enough for his taste – but he’s happy to do the same ones over and over, too 😉 The first one I ever made, this Rainbow Bear Matching Game, is still his favorite, probably because he’s obsessed with the actual Rainbow Bears.

This one is done in a bit of a different style, and I put the names of the items shown in the images on the cards, so it doesn’t focus on colors on the face of it, but of course you can still use it to talk about colors and introduce new vocabulary. Let me know what you think about this Fall Matching Game for Toddlers and how your kids like it!

What’s in the Printable PDF File?

This pdf file contains a one-page, low-prep printable. I used six fall-themed images and included their names: Tree, pumpkin, acorn, sunflower, apple, and leaf.

Six items are perfect for my toddler, and the cards came out in a great size for his hands.

Print the page twice and cut up one or both copies at the black lines. We still leave one copy intact and match the cards that way, but we should be able to move up to two sets of cards soon.

If your toddlers aren’t ready for a full memory game with cards turned over, intermediate steps can be matching cards from a stack of cards with cards face up on the table or laying out one set of cards face up and the other set face down on the table and turning the latter set over one card at a time to match with the open cards.
