How to Use This Printable
To use this printable, print it out at home and encourage your child to count all of the matching items. Once they have found every instance of a particular image, they can write down the number of items they counted on the provided line.
This activity can be adapted for various age groups. Younger children can cross out each item as they count it to make it easier to keep track of which pictures they have already counted. As for older kids, to make this activity more challenging, encourage them to rely solely on their memory.
I have also provided an answer sheet to help your kiddos double-check whether they have counted the correct number of items without needing the help of an adult.
How to Print This Activity
After you have downloaded the PDF file to your computer, simply print it on Letter-sized (8.5 x 11 inches) paper.
You can also print this activity on A4 paper, but you will need to adjust the “Scale to Fit” setting on your printer to ensure that none of the printable area is being cut off.
How to Make This Printable Reusable
If you’re looking to save paper, there are several ways to make this printable reusable:
- Laminate the page using a thermal laminator (I love mine!)
- Place the page inside a self-laminating sheet
- Place the page inside a plastic sheet protector
- Place the page inside a dry erase pocket
Using one of these methods will not only make the printable be more durable, but it will allow your child to cross out the images and write down their answers using dry erase markers, then wipe the sheet clean and store it for future use.

Why Are I Spy Activities Beneficial for Kids?
I Spy printables aren’t just fun—they’re also a great way to help kids practice a variety of skills, including counting, working memory and visual discrimination skills.
Being able to recognize visual details in pictures will help kids discriminate between the different letters of the alphabet when they are learning read.
