This is the sheet as it prints. Change any option and it updates.

Beach, camp and long days

The words come from the beach and the pool (sand, shell, wave, swim, sunscreen), from camping and picnics, and from summer evenings (firefly, ice cream, lemonade). Sunscreen, at nine letters, is the longest word, and the three summer months finish the list. A sheet can be printed at the start of the break or in the last weeks of the school year; the pages carry no dates.

Questions and answers

Are these summer worksheets for summer break?

They are tracing sheets of summer words, with nothing tied to a grade or a date, so they print the same in June or in August. Nothing on them is a review of school work.

Is ice cream one word or two on the sheet?

Two, written the usual way, and the sheet keeps them together on one line as a single item to trace. Separate items in the generator box with commas, so a two-word item stays whole.

Which summer sheet should a beginner start with?

Big letters: sun, sand, swim, pool, camp and wave at the Ages 3-4 size. Each word has three or four letters.

Can I swap sunscreen for a word from a family trip?

Yes. In the generator box, replace any word with another, such as lake or boat, and download the new sheet. Nothing typed in the box is kept by the site.

Is there a summer word search too?

Yes, on the summer word search page, with three puzzles and their answers. This page is for writing words by hand.
