Hearts
How to use this worksheet
- Start at the dot on the bottom point of the heart. Go up and round the left side, over the left bump into the dip at the top, then over the right bump and down to the point again.
- Stop for a moment in the dip at the top: that is where the line changes direction.
- Each row has seven or eight hearts; your child can lift the crayon between them.
- Trace the solid model heart with a finger before the dashed ones.
What this worksheet teaches
A heart combines curves with a sharp point and a dip, so it asks the hand to switch between rounding and stopping. Tracing it in one flowing line trains the rounded movement used in many letters and helps a child control exactly where a curve ends. Because children love drawing hearts, this sheet is also good for building the habit of finishing a whole row. The large rows, about 2.4 cm tall, leave room for the whole-arm movement typical at 3–4.
Play idea
Pour a thin layer of salt onto a tray and draw hearts in it with a finger, starting at the bottom point. Shake to erase, then trace a row on the sheet.
