Objects Practice Activities
Printable same and different object worksheets for Nursery, LKG and UKG children to build careful looking, matching and early comparison skills.
Practice that builds confidence
Building object discrimination
These Objects Practice Activities help Nursery, LKG and UKG children notice whether everyday pictures are the same or different. Children look closely at objects, compare shape, size, position and details, then mark, match or colour the correct answer.
The printable worksheets use simple visual tasks with familiar objects so young learners can practise observation before moving into more formal maths and language work. Activities may include circling the odd object, matching identical pictures and finding which object is not like the others.
In the Same Different > Objects section, children practise a key pre-maths skill: comparing one object with another. They learn that two objects can look exactly alike, partly alike or completely different. This builds vocabulary such as same, different, alike, not alike, match and odd one.
How the activities progress
The worksheets begin with clear object pictures where the difference is easy to see, such as a ball beside a cup. They can then move towards closer comparisons, such as two similar toys with one small change in shape, direction or detail. This gradual progression encourages children to scan the whole picture rather than guess from the first thing they notice.
A simple parent routine
At home, sit with your child and name each object before asking, “Are these the same or different?” Encourage pointing first, then circling or colouring. Use real objects too: place two spoons and one pencil on the table and ask, “Which one is different?” Keep the language calm and repeat the reason: “This is different because it is not a spoon.”
Classroom uses for teachers
Teachers can use these pages for morning work, maths readiness practice, small-group centres or revision after an oral sorting activity. They are also useful for checking whether children can follow instructions such as circle, tick, match or colour. Pair work works well: one child answers and the other explains why.
Common errors to watch for
Some children choose the largest or most colourful picture instead of comparing the objects. Others notice only one detail and miss a change in direction or shape. If this happens, guide them to look from top to bottom and left to right. A child-friendly strategy is: “Look, name, compare, then mark.”

Frequently asked questions
What do children practise in these Objects worksheets?
Children practise looking at everyday object pictures and deciding whether they are the same, different or the odd one out. This supports early comparison, matching and observation skills.
Are these worksheets suitable for Nursery children?
Yes. Nursery children can start with simple picture comparisons, especially when an adult reads the instruction and encourages them to point, circle or colour the answer.
How can I explain same and different at home?
Use real objects first. Show two similar items and one unlike item, such as two cups and one spoon. Say, “These two are the same. This one is different because it is a spoon.”

Young children may pick the biggest or brightest object instead of the different one. Remind them to name each object and compare all the details before marking an answer.
