Short words in capital letters to trace – ages 4–5

Five rows with short words: MOM, DAD, CAT, BUS and SUN. Each word comes once to trace, and the rest of the row carries starting dots to write it alone. The letters are 16 mm tall.

Why is this sheet for ages 4–5?

Words rather than single letters: the child sees that letters side by side turn into something you can read.

  • Five short words built from familiar letters, 16 mm tall.
  • One word per row – traced once, then written alone.
  • Starting dots keep the letter shapes right without a grey path.

💬 Tip for parents

Let the child read the word, or read it to them, before the tracing starts. Spacing between letters is the usual trouble – a finger between words is an old trick that works. If the child would rather write a sibling's name than MOM, let them; wanting to write matters more than the order of the sheets.
