Begin by having children point to each letter in the word gift and say the word aloud to build confidence with early sight words. Encourage them to use bright colors when coloring the outlined version to keep the activity engaging. When tracing the word, guide them to follow the dotted lines slowly and start each letter at the correct point for proper handwriting habits.
After tracing, kids can color the gift picture to strengthen fine-motor coordination. This worksheet works wonderfully for literacy centers, morning work, small groups, or Christmas-themed reading lessons.
