Christmas Beginning Sound Worksheet

This Beginning Sounds Christmas Worksheet helps children practice early phonics skills by identifying and circling the beginning sounds of festive holiday pictures. Kids look at each image—Santa, hat, gingerbread cookie, and Christmas tree—and choose the correct starting letter.

It’s a fun and simple activity for literacy centers, morning work, or small-group practice during December.

Teaching Ideas for This Worksheet

Beginning-sound practice helps children strengthen phonemic awareness and early reading readiness. Before circling a letter, invite kids to say the picture name out loud and stretch the beginning sound—“Sssanta,” “Hhhhat,” “Cccookie,” “Tttree.” Encourage children to match that sound to the correct letter.

For an added challenge, kids can color the pictures afterward, write the beginning letters on a separate sheet, or think of another word that starts with the same sound. This worksheet works well for centers, early finishers, one-on-one practice, or quick literacy warm-ups.
