Turkey Feathers Number Matching Game

Turkey themed activities are a fun way to learn while getting ready for Thanksgiving. Here is a Free printable number matching game that will get your preschooler to practice number recognition, counting, and number quantity concepts.   
Turkey Feathers Number Matching Game

This Turkey Feathers number matching game includes numbers 1-10 and 11-20, and kids can match number to number, or number to quantity. 

I recommend that you laminate this game so it can be played over and over again. Just print off the pages, laminate, and then cut out the feather pieces on the cut-out pages. You can also use Velcro to attach the pieces.

Here is the laminator and velcro that I use (affiliate links):
