How to use this worksheet
- Name the elephant's parts together before tracing: the big body, two thick legs, the head with a large ear, the curled trunk, an eye and a short tail.
- Start each of the four rows at the dark dot and trace the dashed elephants along the back, down the trunk and around the legs; after every row, let the hand rest.
What this worksheet teaches
Following the large dashed elephant trains one long outline with many turns: the curl of the trunk, the square corners of the legs and the big curve of the ear.
Play idea
Play elephant parade: your child's arm becomes a trunk swinging left and right while you count the traced elephants in each row together.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
Which part will my child find easiest?
Usually the long back, because it is one big curve; the trunk curl and the corners of the legs need a slower hand.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 4–5 — the large elephants are fully dashed in all four rows, so the child can follow the long outline, the curled trunk and the ear without having to plan the shape.
What if my child's pencil leaves the dashed elephant?
Trace the first elephant together and slow down at the trunk curl and the square legs; a smooth long outline is the aim, and small bumps along the way are fine.
