Dot to Dot: Hen with a Rounded Tail — 11 Dots for Ages 4–5
How to use this worksheet
- Dot 1 is the biggest dot, at the highest point of the hen; your child joins the numbers clockwise and names each one aloud.
- The count ends at 11, just one step past ten, and the pale dashed outline shows the hen's shape if the order gets confusing.
- When dot 11 meets dot 1 again and the hen is closed, color her feathers and her rounded tail.
What this worksheet teaches
This page practices counting up to twenty, careful lines from dot to dot and recognizing a shape from its outline. A hen lays eggs and clucks to keep her chicks close.
Play idea
Draw the hen a nest with eggs and grains in the yard.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
What does a hen eat?
Grain, grass and little bugs — she scratches the ground with her claws to find them.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 4–5 — 11 dots keep the counting to just past ten, and the pale dashed outline gives extra help.
What if my child skips a number?
Point to the last hen dot your child joined and count on from that number together; with only 11 dots, the next one is never far away.
