How to use this worksheet
- Point to the curly hook at the top, the two sloping shoulders like a roof and the straight bar at the bottom where pants would hang.
- Put the pencil on the dark dot of the solid hanger that opens each row and trace the dashed coat hangers, hook first; four large rows are plenty for a three- or four-year-old.
What this worksheet teaches
Tracing the hanger starts with a small curl and then turns into long straight slants, so a young child feels the difference between a round movement and a straight one in one shape.
Play idea
Put your child's T-shirt on a real hanger and compare it with the drawn ones: find the hook, the shoulders and the bar on both.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
Where should the hanger start?
At the dark dot at the tip of the hook; the pencil curls around like a question mark, drops to the top of the shoulders and then runs down to the bar.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 3–4 — the large coat hangers are dashed throughout, so your child can follow the curled hook and the long diagonal shoulders with full support.
What if my child's line leaves the dashed shoulders?
Trace the first hanger together and stop at each corner of the triangle; turning at the corners slowly keeps the long slants on the dashes.
