Every line has a goal
Paths go from one picture to another: a rocket to its planet, a bunny to its carrot. Your child always knows where to start and where to stop, and on many pages a small arrow shows the direction.

Lines, waves, loops, shapes and mazes, one little game per page

- Ages 3 to 5
- Straight lines to mazes
- Pictures on every page
- Large 8.5 x 11 in pages
Why children enjoy it
Three things you will notice the first time you open it with your child.
One small step at a time
The workbook starts with straight lines like falling raindrops and castle steps, then moves on to waves and loops, circles and triangles, and finally mazes. If a page feels hard, the page before it is the perfect warm-up.
Trace first, then color
Many pages end with coloring: the rainbow, the snails and flowers, the ladybugs. Once the lines are traced, the page becomes a picture your child finished on their own.
What's inside
The activities are grouped by type, so your child practices one kind of stroke before moving to the next.
✏️Straight lines
Up and down lines: raindrops falling into a puddle, zigzag steps that lead to a castle.
🌊Waves and loops
Fish swimming through the waves, rockets looping to the planets, insects flying around the garden.
🔺Shapes
Circles, starting with a clock, and triangles, starting with a slice of watermelon.
🌈Drawings
Trace the dotted paths of the bees and the butterfly, then color the rainbow.
🧭Mazes
Help the bunny find the carrot and the bear find the honey.
⭐Final review
Spirals on snails, bees and flowers, plus ladybugs to trace, go over and color.
Which level is it for?
It is made for children ages 3 to 5 who can hold a crayon and are ready to follow a line from start to finish. Your child does not need to read: each page has a short instruction you can read aloud together.
Younger preschoolers usually start with the straight lines and waves. Older preschoolers can move faster to the loops, shapes and mazes. Every child goes at their own pace, so there is no need to finish the book in order or in a hurry.

The questions parents ask us most before buying.
What age is this workbook for?
It is made for children ages 3 to 5. It starts with simple straight lines and builds up to loops, shapes and mazes, so younger and older preschoolers can both find pages at their level.
My child has never traced before. Is it too hard?
The first pages are straight lines, the easiest stroke to start with, and many pages have a small arrow that shows which way to go. Sit with your child for the first pages and do one or two pages at a time.
Does my child need to know letters?
No. The workbook practices lines, curves, shapes and mazes, the movements children use later when they learn to write letters.
What should my child use to trace?
Thick crayons or triangular pencils are easiest for small hands. Markers also work well for older preschoolers.
Can I see some pages before buying?
Yes. You can download 8 free pages from the workbook and print them at home.
What size is the book?
It is a paperback with large 8.5 x 11 inch pages, so there is plenty of room for small hands.
