We wanted to offer something better — a small, genuinely free, well-designed sample that Indian parents can print on A4 and use straight away.

Why printable LKG worksheets still matter
There are hundreds of learning apps for young children, so why print anything at all? A few practical reasons:
- Pencil grip and hand strength. LKG children are learning to hold a pencil and control it. Paper and pencil give the resistance and feedback that a fingertip on glass does not.
- It matches school. Most Indian schools use notebooks and worksheets in LKG, often the four-line notebook for English. Practising the same way at home makes classwork feel familiar.
- Fewer distractions. A worksheet has no notifications, no autoplay and no “one more video”.
- Something to show. Children love holding up a finished page or sticking it on the fridge. That sense of completion is a real motivator.
Worksheets are not the whole of learning at this age — play, stories and conversation matter just as much — but a short daily page is a simple way to build habits and fine-motor skills.
What’s inside the free LKG worksheets PDF
Each activity in the sample is taken from the kind of skills most LKG classes work on. If you are curious about the wider picture, our post on the LKG syllabus explains what children typically learn across English, Maths and EVS.
| Activity | Skill it builds | You’ll need |
|---|---|---|
| A–B letter tracing | Letter formation, pencil control, following a starting point | Thick pencil or crayon |
| Numbers 1–5 count & colour | Counting objects, linking a numeral to a quantity | Crayons or colour pencils |
| Matching | Visual discrimination, drawing a line from point to point | Pencil |
| CVC words: cat, sun, bus | Early phonics, hearing and blending three sounds | Pencil, your voice |
| Star chart | Routine, motivation, a sense of progress | Stickers or a sketch pen |

How to print the worksheets (A4 tips)
The PDF is designed for standard A4 paper, which is what most home printers and local photocopy shops use in India.
- Print at 100% / “Actual size”. If your printer settings say “Fit to page”, that is usually fine too, but actual size keeps the tracing lines at the intended size.
- Black-and-white is fine. Your child will be colouring the pages anyway.
- No printer at home? Save the PDF on your phone and get it printed at a nearby stationery or photocopy shop. Six pages costs very little.
- Print extra tracing pages. Children often want to do the A and B page again — and repetition is good.
- Slightly thicker paper helps if your child presses hard or uses sketch pens, but normal paper works.
How to use the free LKG worksheets at home: a 6-day plan
The simplest approach is one activity per day, then a star on the chart. Here is a gentle plan you can follow over one week:
| Day | Activity (about 5 minutes) | Off-paper extension |
|---|---|---|
| Day 1 | Put up the star chart together; trace letter A | Find things that start with “a” — apple, aeroplane, ant |
| Day 2 | Trace letter B | “B” hunt — ball, banana, bucket, bindi |
| Day 3 | Count & colour numbers 1–5 | Count spoons, chappals or rotis at dinner |
| Day 4 | Matching activity | Match socks from the laundry |
| Day 5 | CVC words: cat, sun, bus | Spot a bus or the sun on your walk; say the sounds aloud |
| Day 6 | Child’s choice — repeat a favourite page | Show the finished pages to a grandparent |
Tips for letter tracing
- Show the starting dot first. Say the movement aloud: “Start at the top, go down, slant…”
- Let your child trace with a finger before using a pencil.
- Check pencil grip gently — thumb and index finger pinching, pencil resting on the middle finger. Our guide on how to teach alphabet writing goes into grip and stroke order in more detail.
Tips for counting and colouring
- Ask your child to touch each object as they count. Touching one item per number helps avoid skipping or double-counting.
- After counting, ask “So how many?” — the last number said is the total. This idea takes time to sink in.
- Colouring outside the lines is fine. It is still building hand control.
Tips for CVC words
- Say each sound separately and slowly: /c/ – /a/ – /t/. Then blend faster until it becomes “cat”.
- Use letter sounds, not letter names. “C” says /k/, not “see”.
- If your child is not ready to blend yet, that is normal in early LKG. Just enjoy the pictures and come back later.
Making the star chart work
- Stick it somewhere visible — the fridge or the study table.
- Give the star for doing the practice, not for perfect work.
- Agree on a small, non-food reward for a full chart: choosing the bedtime story, a trip to the park, extra play time.

Common questions parents have while using worksheets
“My child refuses to sit for the worksheet.”
Try a different time of day — many children are more cooperative after a snack and some outdoor play, and less so straight after school. Keep the session very short, sit beside them, and stop before they get bored. Some days, skipping is fine.
“Should I correct every mistake?”
No. Pick one thing to praise and, at most, one thing to gently show. “Look how straight that line is! Let’s try starting this one from the top.” Over-correction can make children reluctant to try.
“We speak Hindi at home. Will this confuse my child?”
Many Indian children learn English at school while speaking Hindi or another language at home, and that is completely normal. You can talk about the worksheets in whichever language is comfortable — “Yeh kitne hain? Count karo!” — while the printed letters and words are in English.
