About these trace and color worksheets
Trace and color pages are a gentle mix of art and pencil practice. Each sheet shows one big dotted picture, such as a sun, house, apple, fish, balloon, star, heart, flower or tree. Kids trace the lines, then color the picture.
There's no right or wrong answer, so it's a relaxing, confidence-building activity for little artists. It's also a nice way to warm up before letter tracing. Kids can use crayons, markers or colored pencils, whatever they like best. Every finished page is worth displaying.

Questions parents ask
Why is tracing good for preschoolers?
Tracing builds the hand control kids need for writing, and pictures make the practice fun.
Should I correct my child's coloring?
It's best to keep it relaxed. Praise effort; coloring control improves naturally over time.
What should my child use: crayons or markers?
Chunky crayons are great for little hands. Markers are fun but can bleed through thin paper.
