Is your child starting school and learning to write? Handwriting Tracing Practice helps children aged 6–8 master cursive and printed letters step by step — with the exact fonts used in schools. Children learn independently, at their own pace, using voice controls designed for little hands that can't type yet. No ads. No data collected. Safe for children. The app has three sections: Letters Browse cursive and printed letters and find any letter by voice. See all four forms at once — uppercase cursive, lowercase cursive, uppercase print, lowercase print. Play the writing animation to learn the correct stroke order. Then trace it yourself — move the virtual pen along the letter's lines to practise proper technique. Each letter plays its sound too, so children connect the shape with the phonics. Pairs The classic card-matching game — now with letters! Find pairs of identical letter cards against the clock. Choose whether to match lowercase with uppercase, or same-case pairs. Pick cursive or printed cards and set the difficulty by the number of cards. Learning letters has never felt more like play. Texts (SK/CZ Cursive font) Type or speak any text — it appears instantly in cursive handwriting. Listen to it read aloud. Play the Telephone game together: one person speaks a sentence, the other listens back and compares. Export your text as a cursive PDF, print it out, or send it as a handwritten letter to grandma. Available fonts in Settings: Cursive: D'Nealian · Handwriting Without Tears · Zaner Bloser · UK Cursive · SK/CZ Cursive Print: Manuscript · SK/CZ Print Download free and start exploring the world of handwriting today!
