This Hindi vowels (swar) tracing worksheet book is part 1 of our Hindi varnamala: 13 activity pages, one letter per page. Your child traces a big dashed letter, looks at a picture with its Hindi word, then traces and writes the letter again.
What's inside: the 11 swar अ आ इ ई उ ऊ ऋ ए ऐ ओ औ, plus अं and अः. Each page has a big letter to trace, a picture with a word (अ अनार, आ आम, इ इमली, उ उल्लू, ऐ ऐनक, अं अंगूर), two rows of grey letters to trace, and a row of empty boxes to write in. The instruction is "Trace the big letter, then write it!". अः has no picture, with a short Hindi line explaining that no Hindi word starts with it. The book ends with a certificate.
Age: the cover says Age 2–4. Younger children can trace just the big letter and leave the boxes for later.
How to print: choose the A4 PDF (or US Letter in the US and Canada), print at 100% scale ("actual size"), and use colour or black and white.
Tips for parents:
- Say the letter and its picture word aloud together: "आ, आम".
- One letter a day is plenty. Praise the trying, not neatness.
When the vowels feel familiar, move on to part 2, Hindi Varnamala: Vyanjan, for the consonants. See all our alphabet books. The app guide Little Messages is a gentle extra. Get the Chunnu Ji app on Google Play.
