I Spy with Supermarket Things

Spy them out! This Kindergarten worksheet packs a scene with supermarket things and asks the child to find the targets hidden in the crowd — pictures like a cart, a basket and a till. Searching a cluttered picture for specific things is real visual-discrimination work: the child looks carefully, scans systematically, and marks what they find. It is pure looking, with no counting along the way.

Finding specific pictures tucked among many trains a child to look closely and not be fooled by a busy background. That visual-discrimination skill is core Kindergarten readiness, and an I Spy hunt rehearses it in a playful way that keeps a child searching happily. The familiar supermarket things make the scene inviting and the targets satisfying to find.

Children who like hunting through a busy supermarket things scene get sharper at spotting hidden things each time. When this feels easy, search i spy with bakery treats, or try i spy with body parts. You can also browse every I Spy worksheet or the whole kindergarten collection — each sheet prints cleanly or plays online for free, and the more a child searches, the keener their eye becomes at picking out small details in any busy picture, a skill that helps with reading and noticing all day long.
