You can have them hunt around the house; in a magazine, newspaper, book; at the grocery store or doctor’s office; or as you are driving in the car. You could also have them use a Letter Hunt Jar (a clear container with rice and letter beads; see picture below).
This is easily adaptable for phonics learning too; instead of finding the letter, have your child look for objects that start with the letter sound.
Laminate or print as needed.

This is a really neat idea. I especially love the idea of them finding the letters in everyday things around the house like the tootpaste. Thanks for sharing.
