Here’s a set of free letter C worksheets for preschool children. These educational activities are a fun way for young children to work on letters of the alphabet.
Recently, I shared letter worksheets that focused on theletter A and the letter B. This week I wanted to add great letter C activities to the alphabet series. Do you have a letter of the week curriculum? If so, these letter C printables will be the perfect supplement.
These FREE Printable Letter C Worksheets include:
- Color the Letter Printable Worksheet
- Alphabet Tracing (capital letters and lowercase letters)
- Color the Letter Sound
- Large Letters to make a lacing card or to uses with dot markers
Color the Letter Page
This free printable letter C worksheet focuses on identifying a specific upper case letter. With younger children, they are still working on visual discrimination. Letter recognition worksheets are a great way to practice this skill. This letter C fun coloring page only includes an uppercase C for that reason. Find the correct letter you are hunting for and color the picture.
Alphabet Tracing Worksheet
There are two tracing pages in this printable pack. One that includes only the uppercase C and the other includes a lowercase letter row for children that are ready or interested.
It takes a lot of fine motor skills to trace on the dotted lines. That’s why I only added 6 letters to each page of the capital letter C tracing pages.
If your child or student wants a little extra practice, I recommend tracing the letters with a highlighter first and then trace again with a pencil. That will give you double the amount of practice.
Letter Sounds Worksheets
In these free printable worksheets you are hunting for pictures that start with the corresponding letter C sound. When you find one that starts with the sound of the letter C, color it in.
With this practice sheet, you might need to sit with some children and stretch out the word with them so they can hear the beginning letter sounds. This worksheet might also be helpful for kindergarten students who need extra practice.
Large Letters with Dot Markers
You can use these free printable activities in a variety of ways to make learning fun. Refer to the list below. These educational activities will help strengthen fine motor skills. It will also help children become familiar with the formation of the letter.
Different Ways to Work with Large Letter C Worksheets:

- Use it as a punching card. Give your child a thumbtack (They can do it!) Start at the top of the letter like you would if you were writing it and poke the thumbtack in the middle of each circle as you form the letter.
