Help your child learn dinosaur related words and beginning sounds with this fun printable - free for our subscribers! Perfect if you're teaching a dino theme, and a great addition to your literacy centre. You can use these cards together with our dinosaur vocabulary flashcards.
The words included are dinosaur, egg, fossil, volcano, bone and footprints.
How to use the Dinosaur Footprint Cards:
- Print a set of footprints on card and laminate. Cut out each footprint and then cut along the centre lines of each.
- Kids have to join the two halves of the dinosaur footprints so that the images match the beginning letter of the words.
- There are two levels of difficulty included in this printable. In the easier set, each footprint has different shaped cutting lines so there is only one possible way to join each half. In the more difficult set, the footprints are cut straight in half.

My son is 3.5 with Childhood Apraxia of Speech and loved these cards. Dinosaurs are always a great theme! He thought it was funny that I was calling the ‘snail’ a ‘fossil’ but kept trying to practice it! We only tried the easier version as the shape of cuts was not what was interesting him, just the pictures and letters!
Thankyou! Glad your son had fun playing with the cards! Of course, the concept of a fossil is a tricky one for kids – they live so much in the present, and it does look just like a snail!
My son (3.2 years old) really liked the pictures and he stayed focused a lot longer than other activities we tried. He’s delayed in expressive and receptive so it was a little harder for him to understand the concept of putting them “together”. I love the idea/graphics and we enjoyed playing with the pieces and getting a new chance at communicating to one another! Good job!
Thanks very much – great to know you enjoyed them!
Love these flash cards! My son is at the beginning of learning letter sounds and he had so much fun with the easy version. Not quite ready for the hard version but I think he will be there soon. Thank you for creating these flash cards.
Thankyou! Great that your son had fun with the easy version – I wanted to make something that would be good for different ages and levels. Thanks for your feedback!
