How to use these worksheets

  1. Step 1

    Trace on screen

    Every letter and number has a trace game. Little fingers follow the green start dot and the arrow, one stroke at a time.

  2. Step 2

    Print the sheet

    One page per letter or number, sized for US Letter and A4. Dotted letters fade across the row so children slowly take over.

  3. Step 3

    Write on their own

    Each row ends with empty space and a starting dot, so children can try the letter without the dots.

The letters use a simple “ball and stick” print style, close to what most US, UK and Australian schools teach first. Most strokes start at the top and go down, and round letters start by curving back to the left. If your child's school teaches a different style, follow the school.

Tracing worksheets FAQ

What are tracing worksheets?

Tracing worksheets show letters, numbers or names as dotted lines. Children follow the dots with a pencil or crayon, which teaches where each stroke starts and which way it goes before they write on their own.

What age are tracing worksheets for?

Most children enjoy tracing from about age 3 to 6, in preschool, pre-K and kindergarten (Nursery and Reception in the UK). Younger children can trace with a finger or a chunky crayon; older children can move on to a pencil.

Are these tracing worksheets really free?

Yes. Every letter, number and name worksheet here is free to use and print, with no sign-up and no email. They are sized to fit US Letter and A4 paper.

Can my child trace on a phone or tablet?

Yes. Each letter and number page has an online tracing game that works with a finger on a touch screen or with a mouse. It shows where to start, the stroke order, and celebrates when the letter is done.

How often should children practice tracing?

Little and often works best. A few minutes a day, stopping while it is still fun, usually beats one long session. Praise the effort and the correct starting point rather than perfect neatness.
