About This Free Number 10 Tracing Worksheet for Kids
Everything on this free number 10 tracing worksheet sits on one page, with one kind of problem repeated. A name and date line runs across the top, a coloured title band names the activity, and one line of instructions sits beneath it. At Kidzolearn, every worksheet is 100% free to download and print — no login, no subscription, no payment required.
Ten is the first time your child writes two digits next to each other, and it is a genuinely different task from everything before it. The two numerals have to sit close together and stay the same height, or the number reads as two separate ones. Because the numeral is twice as wide, five fit on each practice row here instead of six. Fewer repetitions is the right trade — spacing matters more than volume on this sheet. For more early maths in the same style, see our free printable coloring pages, and the full library sits on our free printable worksheets for kids.
What your child will learn from this worksheet
Short as the sheet is, it works on more than adding alone:
- Count ten stars and match that quantity to the numeral 10
- Form the numeral 10 correctly — two separate numerals written side by side — a one, then a zero
- Trace the word “ten” so the numeral and its written name are learned together
- Tell 10 written as two well-spaced digits and 10 written with a gap, which reads as 1 and 0 apart
- Build pencil grip, hand strength and hand-eye control across 5 numerals on each of four practice rows
These are the first number and handwriting objectives set in Nursery, LKG, UKG, Reception and Year 1. Forming numerals and forming letters use the same hand control, so our tracing lines worksheets for preschool are the natural companion to this sheet.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are Kidzolearn worksheets really free?
Yes! Every worksheet on Kidzolearn is 100% free — no subscription, no login and no payment required at any time. Simply click the download button, save the PDF and print it instantly at home or in the classroom.
At what age should children start using this number 10 tracing worksheet?
Most children are ready from around age three, starting with an adult guiding their hand before they try alone. Two things help: being able to hold a pencil in a settled grip, and being able to copy a simple shape such as a line or a circle. If either is missing, trace the large numeral with a fingertip first — the movement is the same and the frustration is far lower.
How does this worksheet help children learn to write numbers?
This number 10 tracing worksheet gives children a counting picture, a dotted numeral and a dotted number word, then four lines of independent practice. Counting, tracing and writing the numeral builds visual-motor coordination, number recognition and confident independent handwriting — the three core skills behind strong early number formation.
Is number tracing part of the official early years curriculum?
Yes. Recognising numerals, counting small groups and forming numbers correctly all sit in the early years curriculum. US standards cover it under counting and cardinality in Kindergarten, the UK Early Learning Goal for number expects children to count small sets and recognise numerals, and Indian Nursery and LKG syllabi start in the same place. Letter formation is taught alongside it rather than after, which is why our uppercase letter tracing worksheets build on the same pencil control once it is secure.
Can I use these worksheet at home?
Absolutely! This worksheet is completely free to download and print at home. All you need is a printer and a pencil — no cost, no sign-up and no login required. You can print it as many times as your child needs.
