Letter J: Cursive Script – The Alphabet for Kids

Meet the Letter J!

Hello, friends! Today, we’re going to learn all about the letter J. Are you ready to have some fun? Let’s start by making the sound of the letter J. Can you say it with me? Great job!

Writing the Capital J

Now, let’s learn how to write the big letter J. We start at the top and draw a line going down. Then, we make a little curve to the left. Look, it kind of looks like an umbrella! Isn’t that fun?

Writing the Lowercase j

Next, let’s try the small letter j. We start at the bottom, go up, and then come back down. At the bottom, we make a loop and cross the lines. Don’t forget the dot on top! Now it looks like a little fish. You can try writing it at home with a pen and paper. It’s super easy!

Words That Start with J

Let’s think of some words that start with the letter J. The first word is “jewel.” Jewels are shiny and pretty! Another word is “Japan.” Did you know Japan is a country in Asia? How about “jaguar”? It starts with a J too! And don’t forget “jungle.” The jungle is full of surprises!

Sing Along with J
