About this activity

A smiling race car speeds along a track beside a checkered flag, a sun and a few clouds. The car’s body, wheels and spoiler, a traffic cone, a stack of tires and the clouds are drawn in dots to trace, while the face, stripes and details are solid. Wheels and fast curves give it a medium challenge.

Frequently asked questions

Which part is hardest to trace?

Most children find the wheels hardest, because the dots form tight circles. Tracing them in two halves helps.
