Big and Small with Post Office

Find the big one! This preschool worksheet shows post at different sizes, and a child spots the biggest. Weighing the sizes and picking the largest — which a letter, a stamp and a parcel is the big one? — is the simplest size judgment there is, a comparison a child makes well before counting. Each pick sharpens a young child's eye for the bigger of two pictures.

Choosing the bigger picture trains a child to weigh one quality — size — between exactly two things. That focused, two-way comparison is a call a preschooler makes naturally and sharpens with practice. With post shown big and small, the question stays simple: which of these two is larger? Each correct pick grows a child's confidence in judging size at a glance.

Children feel clever spotting the bigger picture every time, and a finished big-and-small worksheet is a small win. When this is easy, compare the sizes in big and small with reptiles and amphibians, or try big and small with summer. You can also browse every big-and-small worksheet or the whole preschool collection — each sheet prints cleanly or plays online for free, and the more a child compares big and small, the surer their eye for size grows, one comparison at a time.
