Are you teaching your little one about the letter G?
I have put together a number of fun and educational printables to teach that. In this article, you’ll find worksheets for letter tracing, coloring pages, puzzles, mazes, dot marker sheets, and more!
As a homeschooling mom, I understand that many moms have more than one young child. That’s why, in addition to worksheets for preschoolers and kindergarteners, I’ve also included some more advanced activities such as word searches and I spy games for 1st and 2nd graders.
All these pages are in PDF format and designed to be printed on letter-sized paper. I tried my best to utilize the space but also give you enough room to perforate them and use a binder.
Feel free to print as many copies of the worksheets as you need for teaching. However, selling or claiming them as your own is prohibited. If you know of any fellow moms or teachers who would like to use them, please share the link to this article with them.
There are two ways to download the worksheets:
- Click on the page you want to download to open a new window in PDF format. Then, proceed to print from that window.
- Trigger a download to your phone or computer by clicking the yellow “Download PDF” button under each page you want to print.
Check out the other letters in the alphabet as they come out, too. I’m working hard to have them all out soon.

Letter G – Writing Practice Sheets
Let’s start by practicing writing the uppercase and lowercase letter “G” with the “Letter G – Writing Practice Sheets”.
You may want to start with the first sheet if you have very young children aged 2-3. I’ve also included letter formation prompts to help guide your child’s writing.
I’ve also included letter formation prompts to help guide your child’s writing.
- Uppercase G: Over around, stop halfway, in, leave it open.
- Lowercase g: Over around, up, down, curve up, leave it open.
Don’t be frustrated if your little one only wants to trace a couple of letters! Exposure it’s the most important thing at this stage.
I am also very purposeful in including ASL in my worksheets.
I’ve provided a few different options for these writing sheets so you can offer some variety and keep things engaging.
Cursive G – Writing Practice Sheets
Next, we have the “Cursive G—Writing Practice Sheets,” which include letter formation prompts to help your child learn to write cursive uppercase and lowercase “G.”
After your child colors and traces the first worksheet, you can have them cut small pieces of paper and glue them to fit the letters.
Kids are not taught cursive writing as much as before. However, it is beneficial for building fine motor skills and activating a distinct part of the brain compared to regular writing.
Every writing practice sheet has a different illustration to keep things interesting.
Printing one of these worksheets can also give you extra ideas. For instance, you can have a conversation with your child about what they would like to plant if they had a garden.
I’ve also included the ASL sign for the cursive G.
Find, Color, and Circle Worksheets
The “Find, Color, and Circle Worksheets” are great for younger students as they don’t take much time, are fun and engaging, and will help your child master the letter “G.”
I’ve also included a small area for letter tracing!
Illustration-based learning is so much fun; my kids love it, and I am sure yours will, too!
I also have a different worksheet with the lowercase “g” because kids learn through repetition. Both sheets have different illustrations to help your child improve and learn new vocabulary.

Dot markers (affiliate link) are another way to help children learn their letters. Pay attention to what your child likes, as it will help you tailor their learning as they grow.

Line Tracing Practice With Emphasis in Letter G
Line tracing worksheets are an excellent way to help develop your child’s fine motor skills.
It is a great idea to have your young children practice line tracing before they begin with letter tracing. The line tracing worksheets below focus on the letter “G,” providing a fun way to introduce your child to this letter.
As you scroll down, you’ll notice I used different words that target the letter G, and that all tracing lines are different.
You can have the students use different colors on each line, and at the end, with supervision, have them cut through the dotted line.
Tip: Help the child identify the words that start with “G.”
Letter G Puzzles
Puzzles can benefit the mind by enhancing memory, problem-solving skills, and attention to detail and reducing stress levels.
I included a puzzle for the uppercase and lowercase G. However, if your child loves puzzles, I have a puzzle for each letter.
You can print out the puzzle pieces, laminate them, and cut them out. This way, your child can practice the letter G while gaining all the benefits I mentioned.
Letter G Maze Worksheets
Mazes are an excellent way for children to develop problem-solving and cognitive skills. They encourage creative thinking, improve memory, and teach patience and perseverance.
The following mazes are for children aged 5+. They are easy but challenging, so your students will gain confidence as they practice.
The following maze is shaped in the form of an uppercase G.
This one is shaped in the form of a lowercase g.
See if your student can deduct that before you point it out!
If your child needs practice writing, you can print this maze and use it as a reward after they finish. Kids, by nature, love mazes and labyrinths.
I also have some other fun mazes as well.
- Help the girl find her gloves.
- Help the garbage truck fill up its tank with gas.
Kids have a fascination with garbage trucks! This is a perfect opportunity to teach them about how important they are to the community!
Read and Match Worksheets
Have the student color the pictures and match them with the right word.
If the child doesn’t know how to read, they may need your help. You can read the words to them and encourage them to repeat after you. This can help them improve their vocabulary and language skills while enjoying the activity.
Cut and Paste – Memory Game
The following worksheets can be used in different ways.
I first designed them so the child could color, cut, and paste the illustration on the right word. However, by printing the worksheets twice, you can also use them as a memory game.
Start with the number of sheets your child has the attention span for. Kids learn at every moment of the day, so it shouldn’t feel like a chore for them.
I Spy Worksheets for letter G
“I Spy” games are a fantastic way for your little ones to master concepts while having fun!
Ask your child to color and count the different pictures that start with the letter “G,” then write it down at the bottom of the page. Great for keeping your little one occupied during meals out, on road trips, or anytime you want to sneak in some learning fun!
Identify the Different Image Worksheets
I enjoy helping my children develop their cognitive skills by incorporating all sorts of activities. These worksheets involve identifying which illustration is different from the rest.
All illustrations begin with the letter G.
If the student struggles to identify the letter G, the following pages may help, as they require them to identify the different variations of the letter G.
Oh, and I also made one with the lowercase g.
Coloring Pages for Letter G
Coloring is a practical teaching tool for children. These worksheets are beautifully designed, and some include sections for practicing writing skills.
I loved the “G is for Garden” and “G is for Galaxy.” The garden is so full of life and I absolutely love astronomy and all things space! I love God’s creation.
Tip: Ask your kids questions as they color one of these worksheets! Here are some examples:
- What do you think there’s inside the gifts?
- Do you know what a galaxy is?
- Did you know giraffes can sleep while standing up?
It always amazes me all the things you can teach your child from a single page, or illustration!
Letter G Flashcards
Flashcards help with quick, repetitive practice that enhances memory and recall in children as they learn.
Whether at home, during a car ride, or even while waiting at a restaurant, this is a simple, effective method of reinforcing the letter G with your child as he masters it!
All these flashcard worksheets include examples of both the uppercase and lowercase G.
Color, Letter, and Number Recognition Worksheets
Teach your little students about numbers, color, and the letter G simultaneously. The beauty of teaching small children is that everything is interlaced, making things more interesting.
On the following worksheets, your child will practice counting, identifying the uppercase from the lowercase G, and picking the correct number and colors while cutting and gluing on the right spot.
Word Search
Find the words that start with the letter G.
Are you planning a long trip? Print a couple of these and hand them to your child.
Word search activities are entertaining, but they also help with spelling, improve concentration, keep the brain active, and develop problem-solving skills.
I included three different worksheets because one is just too little for how amusing they are.
That’s it!
So there you have it—a variety of fun and engaging “G worksheets” to use with your students or children. Remember to keep things interesting by mixing and matching different worksheets and illustrations.
Happy teaching!
