About this resource

This Easter themed EYFS Codebreaker is a fun and engaging early literacy activity designed to support letter recognition, phonics, and early spelling skills . Using a simple picture-to-letter code, children match each symbol to the correct letter and write the corresponding letters to decode a short Easter-themed phrase. This resource is ideal for EYFS children who are confident recognising and forming single letters , making it suitable for phonics sessions, small-group work, or independent challenges. The clear visuals help children make connections between pictures and letters while encouraging careful observation, problem solving, and early reading confidence. Children complete the activity by writing letters beneath the images across three tables before attempting to read the decoded phrase , creating a sense of achievement and purpose. The Easter theme adds engagement and makes the activity perfect for seasonal learning or linked provision. This low-prep resource is ideal for teachers looking for an EYFS codebreaker activity that develops early literacy skills in a playful and accessible way.Read more
