Last week Disney sent us their newest release in the Buddies series, the “epic tail” of Disney Super Buddies
. Yep; those adorable pups are up to their crazy antics again, but this time superhero style!
The kids love the Buddies movies
and this one didn’t disappoint. It brought us lots of laughs for our family movie night and even some great discussion about what makes a REAL hero. And of course, the superhero fun abounds at our house now!
So I decided to tap into the kids’ superhero excitement to encourage some alphabet learning using a Superhero-Theme Upper and Lowercase Letters Printable to make a SUPER Alphabet Matching Game!
A Fun & FREE Upper and Lowercase Letters Printable!
Let’s check it out…
Superhero Upper and Lowercase Letters Matching Game
Priscilla has been itching to learn to read lately, but she could still use some practice on recognizing lower case letters. And when I saw the adorable superhero clipart at Clementine Digitals, I was inspired to make a cute “superhero-style” upper and lowercase letters printable to use for an alphabet matching game.
I made fun superhero cards for each uppercase letter and round superhero bursts for each lower case letter.
Get your Upper and Lowercase Letters Matching Printable:
Once I printed them, I cut the bursts with a 2″ circle punch
, the cards with my paper trimmer
, and then laminated
them all.
They could be used as is for a simple alphabet matching game or uppercase and lowercase letter sorting, but I used a glue gun
to adhere each lower case letter burst to a colorful clothespin
. This makes it a clipping letter matching game where the child can clip each lowercase letter to it’s matching uppercase letter card. Pinching the clips adds an element of hands-on learning and great fine motor skill practice, too!
Thanks to Disney Super Buddies
I think superheroes will be a regular theme around here. And hopefully, it will inspire some learning for your kids, too! Make sure to follow the Buddies on Facebook and Pinterest.

Do you have the superhero matching in uppercase for the circles?

No, the uppercase are only on the cards and lowercase on the circles. Sorry!

I am so in love with these! I’m going to make these for Lucy, and I think they’d be a great classroom center or busy bag too. Maybe I’ll just have to make a set for Lucy’s Kinder teacher. Just shared on my FB page! Thanks so much for linking up to Discover & Explore this week!
