How to use this worksheet
- Row 1: sharp zigzags, from the dot on the bottom line up to the top line and down again. Row 2: star outlines, each starting at its top point.
- Row 3: circles, from the dot on the left side, going down and round. Row 4: U-shaped valleys hanging from the top line.
- Row 5: waves, starting halfway up and going up first. This row is shorter because it stops next to the mascot.
What this worksheet teaches
The five rows alternate sharp and round: zigzags and stars need crisp stops at every point, while circles, valleys and waves need smooth, even turns. Moving from one kind of line to the other trains a 3–4 year old to look at the model at the start of each row instead of repeating the previous movement automatically. Because every row is dashed from start to finish, the challenge is the change itself, not drawing without a guide.
Play idea
Pointy or round? Before each row, your child guesses whether the pattern is pointy or round, clapping once for pointy and rolling the hands for round. Then trace the row and check the guess.
