ABC Bracelets: A Letter Recognition Activity

Learning the alphabet is FUN when you have ABC bracelets! Preschoolers love being able to admire their “letter of the day” just by glancing at their wrist, and they can enjoy the attention they get as friends and family ask, “What letter do you have today?” And tomorrow they get a brand-new bracelet with a brand-new letter to admire!

Our free download includes three sets of bracelets (uppercase, lowercase, and combination). Just choose a letter, prepare the bracelet, and let the learning begin!

Instructions for the ABC Bracelets

1. Download and print a set of ABC Bracelets. The PDF includes both full-color and black-and-white bracelets.
2. Cut out the strip for your “letter of the day.” Laminate if desired.
3. Create the bracelet by fastening the ends together with double-sided tape or Velcro dots.

Playing with Your ABC Bracelets

If you’re using the black-and-white version of the bracelets, you can add to the fun by allowing your child to color each bracelet.

Letter bracelets make great fashion accessories, too! Some kids like to wear more than one ABC bracelet.

Throughout the day, be sure to ask your preschooler, “What letter do you have on your wrist today?” You can also use the three illustrated objects on the bracelet to help your child begin learning the sounds that each letter makes.
