Download this whole collection as one PDF
Every worksheet in this collection — ABC Tracing Worksheets, Coloring Pages, Colors Worksheets, Shapes Worksheets — bundled into a single printable book.
Our nursery worksheets are made for children aged 3 to 4 who are just starting to recognise letters, colours and shapes. Every page is free to print at home. You will find letter tracing, coloring pages, colours and shapes grouped together, so you can build a short, varied set that keeps a young learner curious without overwhelming them.
Nursery is a time for noticing and naming. Children begin to spot the first letter of their name, sort objects by colour and point out circles and squares around the house. These pages turn that natural curiosity into gentle practice. Letter tracing eases your child into early mark making, while colours and shapes build the words and ideas that learning rests on.
There is no checklist to tick off and no right order. Print a coloring page when your child needs something calm, or a tracing sheet when they are keen to try writing. Talk through each page together and stop while it still feels fun. Everything is free, so you can keep a small stack ready and reach for whatever fits the moment.

Questions parents ask
They overlap a lot. Nursery worksheets suit ages 3 to 4 and focus on recognising letters, colours and shapes, while preschool worksheets often add more tracing and early number work for ages 3 to 5. Pick by what your child is ready for.
Yes. Every page is a free PDF you can print at home, with no sign-up or payment needed.
Keep sessions short, sit with them, and let them choose the page. Mixing colouring with a little tracing keeps things varied, and stopping while they are still enjoying it makes them keen to return.
Not formally. At this age, tracing and mark making matter more than neat writing. Letter tracing helps them learn how shapes are formed, and proper handwriting follows naturally later.
