How to use this worksheet

  • Start at the dark dot on the bottom point of the heart. Go up the left side, over the left bump into the dip, over the right bump and back down to the point.
  • Each heart stands on the bottom line and its bumps reach the top line. Lift the pencil between hearts.
  • Look at the model before every row, because small hearts need slow, careful turns.

What this worksheet teaches

Small hearts ask for a lot of control in a little space: two matching curves, a sharp dip in the middle and a clean point at the bottom. Drawing them from a model means your child has to remember the order of the movements and keep both halves the same size. At five and six this is excellent practice for the precise, small movements used in writing letters at their real size.

Play idea

Make a heart chain: your child joins three freehand hearts in each row with a short line so they hang like a garland. Then pick the neatest heart on the page together and give it a gold star.

Questions and answers

Questions from parents

Does it matter where my child begins each copied heart?
Yes. Beginning at the bottom point, where the dot sits on the model, lets the whole heart be drawn in one line that finishes where it started.
The hearts get lopsided. What helps?
Pause in the middle dip and look at the first bump before drawing the second, so the two sides match.
Six rows of small hearts is a lot. Is that okay?
Yes, if done in parts. Two or three rows at a time keep the hearts neat.
