X Is for X-ray Fish Craft

The X-ray fish may think he’s pretty clever, but we can see right through him. Make no bones about it—there’s no need to don your Super-Duper X-Ray Goggles for this ABC Letter Craft!

Here’s What You’ll Need

• 2 sheets of printer paper
• Card stock (we used dark blue, medium blue, white, and sky blue)
• X Is for X-ray Fish Craft templates
• 1 “googly” eye
• Glue stick
• Pencil and marker

Instructions for Assembling Your Letter X Craft

1. Print the X Is for X-ray Fish Craft templates.
2. Cut out the templates and trace the letter X and the X-ray fish and skeleton bones onto card stock.
3. Cut out the letter X, the X-ray fish, and the skeleton bones.
4. Glue the bones to the fish to form a skeleton.
5. Attach the fish to a full sheet of card stock (we used sky blue, but you can use any color you like).
6. Glue the letter X on top of the X-ray fish.
7. Affix one googly eye to the X-ray fish’s head.

Learning with Your Letter X Craft

As you and your child assemble your X Is for X-ray Fish Craft, practice saying /ks/–/ks/–box together. (The most common sound of X is /ks/ as in box, fox, and ax.) You can find more tips for working on pre-reading skills with your preschooler in this handy download.
