Plums Tracing Worksheet — Medium Patterns to Draw Independently for Ages 5–6
Oval plums carry a gentle groove and a boat-shaped leaf on the stem. Each medium row opens with one solid model and one dashed copy, and your child, aged 5–6, draws the rest freehand.

How to use this worksheet
- Before drawing, study the model plum: an oval fruit, a groove curving gently from top to bottom, and a stem with a single boat-shaped leaf.
- Only the first plum is solid and the second dashed; the other seven to ten in each of the six rows are drawn freehand, so show your child where the stem starts before each row.
What this worksheet teaches
With only one dashed plum per row, your child plans the order — oval, groove, stem, leaf — closes the oval by eye and checks each plum against the model, a small lesson in copying accurately.
Play idea
Plum harvest: draw a branch above each row and let your child choose which freehand plums are ripe enough to pick.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
In what order should the parts of a plum be drawn?
The oval first, from the dark dot at the top; then the groove from the stem down, the stem, and the leaf last, so the small parts fit onto a finished shape.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 5–6: one dashed plum per row is the only help, so the page shows whether the child can close an oval and place the groove and leaf without tracing.
How long does this worksheet take?
About 15 minutes for all six rows of plums; plums with a groove and a leaf matter more than a full page, so the last rows can wait for another day.
