55 Connect the Dots Worksheets (Ordered by Difficulty)

Dot-to-dot worksheets, also known as connect-the-dots, are a fantastic way to help kids learn how to count and get acquainted with the alphabet. Plus, they're a super fun way to practice these skills because they're like puzzles that reveal cool pictures, which kids absolutely love.

These dot-to-dot worksheets are divided into three levels: easy, medium, and hard. They're also grouped into different categories, making it easy to find worksheets for counting, lowercase and uppercase alphabet tracing, and skip counting.

All of these worksheets are free and can be printed out for children to complete on paper. But if you don't want to print these off, I also have a list of online connect the dots games that can be played on a computer.

You can find more free printable activities for kids including color by number worksheets, hidden picture worksheets, and printable mazes.
