A-Z letter crafts for every uppercase and lowercase letter, all in one organized download! The A-Z Letter Crafts Cut and Paste Lowercase & Uppercase Alphabet Crafts BUNDLE gives you 52 cut-and-paste alphabet crafts, from the alligator on capital A to the zipper on lowercase z.
Children cut, glue and assemble each letter into a friendly character or object that starts with that letter's sound. That hands-on repetition builds letter recognition and beginning sounds while fine motor skills grow through cutting, placing and gluing. Every craft follows the same layout, so kids can focus on the letter without figuring out new directions each time.
Having both letter cases lets you choose the right focus for each learner. Some children start with uppercase letters, others are ready for lowercase and many need regular practice with both. This bundle covers all of those needs for preschool, pre-k, kindergarten, homeschool and early intervention.
With this alphabet crafts bundle, you get
- 26 uppercase letter crafts and 26 lowercase letter crafts in one download
- Full color and black and white versions of every craft
- Letter recognition, beginning sounds and fine motor practice in one activity
- Easy-print templates with one sheet per letter and an example on each page
Print a letter, grab the glue sticks and start crafting.

How to Use It
Step 1: Print the uppercase or lowercase letter craft you want to use in color or black and white.
Step 2: Model how to cut, glue and assemble the pieces. Children color the pieces (if using black and white) and cut them out.
Step 3: Children use the example on the page to glue the pieces together. Say the letter name and beginning sound as they work, then display the finished crafts to reinforce letter recognition.
Materials You'll Need
Easy Differentiation
Children come to craft time with very different cutting and letter skills. These crafts are simple to adjust for each of them.
For Children Who Need More Support
- Pre-cut some or all of the pieces

- Name the letter and the beginning sound of the character or object
- Complete one letter craft each week with your letter of the week
For an Extra Challenge
- Make the uppercase and lowercase crafts for the same letter and compare them
- Name more words that start with the same sound
- Write the letter or the craft's name beside the finished craft
- Collect finished crafts to build an alphabet book
For Speech, OT, ELL or Special Education Support
- Target letter naming and beginning sounds with each craft's character or object
- Use the crafts during OT sessions to build scissor skills and bilateral coordination (using both hands together)
- Offer short language frames such as "A is for ___."
- Give extra processing time and model each step before children begin
