💙 Letter X Activities for Preschool and Kindergarten
Make learning the letter X exciting and hands-on with these fun Letter X activities that go perfectly with your X-Ray Craft!
Whether you’re teaching in the classroom or crafting at home, these creative ideas help preschool and kindergarten kids build letter recognition, fine motor skills, and curiosity about the human body.
1. Read Books About the Human Body
Pair your craft with a fun storytime to introduce kids to bones and how X-rays work.
Here are a few educational and kid-friendly books to enjoy together:
- The Skeleton Inside You by Philip Balestrino
- Dem Bones by Bob Barner
- Look Inside Your Body by Louie Stowell
- Bones: Inside and Out by Roy A. Meals
Encourage kids to point out where bones are in their arms and legs — or even trace their hands and draw the bones inside!
2. Make a Simple X-Ray Art Project
After finishing the Letter X X-Ray Craft, extend the fun with a black paper art project!
Have children trace their hands on black construction paper and glue white cotton swabs (Q-tips) to make “bones.”
It’s an easy, engaging way to combine science and art while reinforcing the letter X.
3. Decorate the Classroom or Alphabet Wall
Display your students’ Letter X Crafts on your alphabet wall or bulletin board labeled “X is for X-Ray.”
Add skeleton cutouts, magnifying glasses, and science-themed decorations to create a fun “Mini Lab” display that sparks curiosity!
4. Letter of the Week: X Is for X-Ray
If you’re focusing on a Letter of the Week theme, this craft is a standout activity!
Pair it with other X-themed ideas like X is for Xylophone, X is for Fox (ending sound), or X Marks the Spot (treasure map craft).
Add tracing worksheets, phonics practice, or a “Find the X” scavenger hunt for extra alphabet fun!
