How to use this worksheet
- Ask your child to notice three things on the model before starting: the long sides are parallel, the wide end flares out evenly on both sides, and the button sits close to the top.
- Your child draws each flashlight as one outline from the top left corner, down to the flared head and back, then adds the short button line.
What this worksheet teaches
Without dashes, the child has to plan the whole outline before starting — where the handle ends, how far the head flares — and then check the result against the model. Drawing two parallel lines by eye and flaring them evenly on both sides trains symmetry and the upright strokes needed in handwriting.
Play idea
Make hand shadows on the wall with a real flashlight — a rabbit, a bird, a dog — then let your child draw the favorite one next to a flashlight on the page.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
How can my child check a freehand flashlight?
Put it next to the model and compare three things: is the handle straight, are the sides parallel, and does the wide end flare the same amount on the left and right?
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 5–6 — the flashlight is simple enough to draw from a model, and six rows of it show whether the handle stays straight and upright.
How long does this worksheet take?
About 10 minutes for six rows of medium flashlights; if the handles start to tilt, stop after row three and try the rest later.
