Clouds
How to use this worksheet
- Each cloud sits on the lower guide line. Start at its left end and draw three bumps – small, tall, small.
- The tall middle bump reaches up to the upper guide line; the side bumps stay lower.
- Finish with a straight line along the bottom, back to the starting point, then move on to the next cloud.
What this worksheet teaches
Drawing a cloud freehand asks the child to remember a sequence: three curves of different heights, then a straight line home. Half tracing shows the model and a few dotted clouds to learn the sequence, and then the child has to reproduce it from memory – an early form of the visual memory used for letters. Changing the height from bump to bump trains size control, and the flat base trains starting and ending on a line. The large size is comfortable for 4–5-year-olds, who still move a lot from the wrist and elbow.

Weather report: when the page is done, your child decides the weather for each row – a sun peeking out behind the clouds in one, raindrops falling in the next.
