Valentine’s Day is around the corner! Do you celebrate it in your class? It is a great time to add in some heart-themed learning activities! I’m excited to share these free Valentine Alphabet Heart Puzzles to develop upper and lowercase letter recognition!

Valentine Alphabet Heart Puzzles
Simply print the free pages with the alphabet hearts, laminate, and cut!
Cut the hearts in half, using the dotted line as guide, and you have upper and lowercase heart puzzles!
Who Should Use These Puzzles?
This FREE Valentine Printable is perfect for a small group or center activity. It is suitable for grades Pre-K and Kindergarten.
How to Play
You can turn it into a group game too where you divide the pieces between groups.
The groups first fit the pieces they have together if they can and then take turns to ask for the other halves as you would in a game of “Go Fish.”
For instance, one group asks another group (ask only one group at a time to make it more challenging): “Do you have the letter B for us?” If the group does have the other half, they must let it go, if not, the asking group must wait for another turn to ask another group for a letter.
The group with all their heart puzzles “matched up” wins!
RELATED RESOURCE: Alphabet Centers & Activities
Another way to use these heart puzzles is to work on alphabetical order.
Place one half of the hearts in alphabetical order, then ask the students to add the missing pieces, but also in alphabetical order. Now you have an upper and lowercase matching activity with an alphabetical order activity – two in one!
Tip: For early learners, provide an ABC chart for them to refer to.
If your students are proficient in alphabetical order, scramble all the pieces and ask them to fix it up in alphabetical order!
