Construction & Big Machines worksheets for 5 year olds
Seven construction & big machines worksheets pitched at 5 year olds, free to print with no account and no watermark. Every one is an easy sheet: big shapes, thick lines and room to be inaccurate.
It's a good fit for anyone with a child who narrates every lorry that passes the window, or who lines up toy trucks by size before bed.
They assume a child who writes most uppercase and many lowercase letters, which is typical at five. If that is not there yet, the age 4 sheets are the better place to start.
Sheets in this set include Smiling Bulldozer Colouring Page, Tow Truck Colouring Page and Smiling Crane Truck Colouring Page. Each is one page on A4, laid out with margins wide enough that nothing is lost printing on US Letter.
Sessions of ten to fifteen minutes work better than one long sitting. Print at 100% rather than fit-to-page — the gap between the guide lines is what tells a child how tall to make a letter, and shrinking it to 94% quietly undoes that.
