Hearts

How to use this worksheet

Begin on the dark dot at the bottom tip, go up the left side, over the left bump and into the dip, then over the right bump and back down.
Trace every dashed heart in one line, closing it at the tip.
In the free half, keep the hearts the same size and leave a small gap between them.

What this worksheet teaches

Each heart has a sharp point at the bottom and a dip at the top between two round bumps, so it trains curves and sharp turns within one closed shape. Half tracing lets a 5–6 year old practice the path with support and then show it without dashes, keeping the size and spacing on their own. Comparing the left and right halves of each heart is also an early lesson in symmetry.

Variation to try

Paper heart check: fold a small piece of paper, draw half a heart along the fold, cut it out and open it. Your child compares this perfectly even heart with the hearts on the sheet and picks the one closest to it.

Questions and answers

Questions from parents

Why does the heart start at the bottom and not at the top?

On this sheet the start dot is on the bottom tip, so the line goes up the left side, over both bumps and back down to the tip in one closed path.

The hearts in the free half are lopsided. Is that normal?

Yes, at 5–6 it is common. Encourage your child to draw the left bump and pause at the dip before starting the right one.

How many rows at a time?

Two or three rows with a break keep the lines careful; the rest of the sheet can wait until later the same day.
