What's included in the Simon worksheet

Letters to trace: 5; Capital S + 4 lowercase
SSA popularity, 2025: #230; Boys' names, United States
Tracing difficulty: steady; No diagonal strokes

Tracing Simon is a step up from the basics — all 5 of its letters are different, and a handful of them ask for a steadier pencil than plain lines do. Remind your child to finish “i” with the dot — dots and crosses are added last, after the letter body. It starts with a capital “S”, one rounded stroke: begin at the top and keep the curve moving rather than lifting partway. Because Simon was the #230 boys' name of 2025, a ready-made Simon tracing sheet like this one sees plenty of classroom use.

The letters of Simon, in the order they are written:

S — One snaking curve: start near the top right, swing up and over to the left, cut back through the middle, and finish curling to the left at the bottom.
i — A short line from the midline down to the baseline, then a dot floated above it — body first, dot last.
m — A short line down, then up and over one hump, and up and over a second hump — two humps, evenly sized.
o — The same closed circle drawn half-size, sitting between the midline and the baseline.
n — A short line down, then back up and over a single hump to the baseline.

Only the capital S reaches the top guide line in Simon — every other letter keeps a low profile. The rest are small letters with nothing hanging below the baseline — only the floating dot on “i” sits above the letter body.

Simon runs five letters, a length it shares with 502 of the 1,918 names on this site. Its popularity is middle-of-the-list for 2025 boys' names — still ahead of 738 of the 965 here.

Simon was the #230 boys' name in the U.S. for 2025, per the Social Security Administration's public-domain baby-names data. One page is all it takes: three-line handwriting guides with a descender line below them, sized for US Letter and printing cleanly on A4.

Tips for tracing Simon

Chunk it as “Sim” + “on”: a short pause in the middle of Simon keeps attention fresh through all five letters.
Teach "body first, dot last" with “i” — finish the downstroke, lift, and only then place the dot.
Give Simon its height song: “tall, small, small, small, small”. Chanting the sizes while tracing keeps tall letters tall and small letters small.
End every session the same way: one Simon on blank paper, no guides — recall is what turns a traced pattern into a learned one.

Customization options

Font style

Two tracing styles: dotted outlines — the classic preschool form — or solid light-gray letters for writing directly over the full shape. Whichever you pick, the example row keeps Simon in solid dark letters for reference.

Letter size

The size option changes the guide-line height. Simon fits at every setting; the large lines are the friendliest starting point, and stepping down makes a natural next milestone.

Number of practice lines

The sheet holds 1 to 12 practice lines under the example row. Start low — three or four lines is plenty for a first session — and add more as sessions get longer.
