How to use this worksheet

  • Name the parts as your child traces: the rounded top, the sides that spread out toward the bottom, the handle arch and the rectangular front pocket.
  • The dark dot is on the left end of the rounded top; trace over the top, down the sides and along the bottom, then add the handle arch and the pocket.

What this worksheet teaches

Following the dashes around a big, familiar object, your child closes a large outline first and then meets a smaller shape inside it. At 3–4 the large size lets the whole hand move, and the pocket gives a first feel for keeping one shape inside another.

Play idea

Pack a real backpack together, naming each thing that goes in, then find the pocket, the handle and the top on the dashed backpack.

Questions and answers

Questions from parents

Why is the backpack wider at the bottom?
Real backpacks sit on their base, so the sides spread out a little; tracing that gentle widening shows your child that sides do not always run straight up and down.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 3–4 — four rows of large dashed backpacks give a young child a big, familiar shape with a smaller one inside.
What if the pencil wanders off the dashed backpacks?
Trace the first backpack hand over hand; if the pocket comes out crooked, that is fine — keeping the big outline closed is the main goal here.
