While in the process of updating my Reading the Alphabet Bundle Pack for MBug to use, I added in my own letter tracing pages. The pages I created are similar to The Measured Mom’s awesome preschool tracing pages.
Instead of dots or stars to show where the child is supposed to start writing, I placed images that start with that letter of the alphabet. You can find them in my updated Reading the Alphabet bundle pack, but I’m offering them for FREE to all of my newsletter subscribers!

The letters are large for preschoolers, who need big spaces to write their letters, so the space is developmentally appropriate for them. I have included BOTH upper and lower case.
I personally believe that uppercase is developmentally easier for preschoolers, but follow what your child likes and go with it. MBug {age 4} likes to try both uppercase and lowercase now and enjoys learning to write her letters, as you can see on our Instagram post.
How to Use the Letter Tracing Sheets
- Slip into a plastic sleeve protector or laminate to re-use over and over with a dry erase marker.
- As your child writes her letters, start on the picture (a picture key is included at the bottom of each page), saying the name of the object to reinforce letter sounds at the same time!
- These can be used as a stand alone tracing activity as you work on letter and their sounds or in conjunction with Reading the Alphabet (lesson correlations are at the bottom of each letter page).

June 20, 2014 at 12:35 amThis looks terrific! I am going to use it as I teach my daughter (who has some learning challenges) her letter-sound associations this year. 🙂 Should make it more fun and be a wonderful visual learning tool for her. Thanks!!
