Rainfall Tracing Worksheet for Preschoolers

How to use this worksheet

Talk about how rain falls straight down from the clouds before your child starts tracing. Guide their pencil along each dotted vertical line from top to bottom, encouraging a quick, straight motion for each individual raindrop line. Have them repeat this across the full row of rain lines, keeping the strokes similar in length and spacing. Color the rain clouds and scene once every line is traced.
