Easter phonics worksheets — free printable
A free, printable Easter-themed phonics worksheet. Uses spring vocabulary — egg, chick, bunny, basket, lily — to practice reading and sound recognition with seasonal words your child probably loves. One page, three activities.
What's on the worksheet
A single page with three activities themed around Easter and spring:
Activity 1 — Find the Easter words. Twelve words shown in a grid; the child circles the Easter ones. Mix of egg, chick, lamb, basket, bunny, lily, spring, pink, yellow, hop, hunt, flower alongside distractors.
Activity 2 — Read each Easter word aloud. Five featured words — egg, chick, lamb, basket, bunny — each with a colorable dot beneath.
Activity 3 — Trace the word EGG. Three rows: solid model, then two for tracing.
A 10-15 minute session of spring-themed phonics practice. Works well for Easter week activities, spring homeschool sessions, or springtime classroom warm-ups.
How this fits into phonics practice
Easter vocabulary spans a useful range of phonics skills:
- CVC patterns: egg, hop, hunt
- Consonant blends: spring, chick
- Digraphs: chick (ch), spring (ng)
- Longer words: basket, bunny, flower
So this sheet practices a mix of skills your child has been building. It's not a replacement for targeted phonics teaching — it's a fun way to reinforce what they already know.

Common questions
What age is this Easter phonics worksheet for?
Best for ages 5-7. Younger kids may find some words too varied; older kids may find the activities simple.
Will my child be ready for these words?
Most of the reading words (egg, chick, lamb, bunny) are short and accessible to mid-kindergarten readers. The find-and-circle includes a few longer words (basket, flower) which work well as parent-led reading practice.
Can I use this in a homeschool curriculum?
Yes. Many homeschool families use seasonal worksheets to mark the calendar year — a small handful per month, tied to holidays and seasons. This is the spring entry in that rotation.
Is this really free?
Yes. Free for personal, classroom, and tutor use. Print as many copies as you need.
