What your child will learn

  • Read the barahkhadi chart — consonants × 12 vowel signs
  • Recognise each matra (vowel sign) and its sound
  • Trace combinations like क, का, कि, की, कु, कू
  • Blend consonants and vowels to read simple words

Tips for parents & teachers

  • Learn one consonant's full row before moving to the next
  • Say each form aloud: ka, kaa, ki, kee…
  • Point out the matra that changes each time
  • Practise a few rows a day, not the whole chart at once

How to Use This Worksheet

  1. 1Read the consonant's row aloud: ka, kaa, ki, kee…
  2. 2Trace one form at a time, saying each sound.
  3. 3Point to the matra (vowel sign) that changes each time.
  4. 4Repeat the full row two or three times.
  5. 5Try writing one or two forms without tracing.

Recommended practice: 5–10 minutes a day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Barahkhadi is the set of combinations formed when a Hindi consonant joins each of the twelve matras (vowel signs) — for example क, का, कि, की, कु, कू, के, कै, को, कौ, कं, कः. Learning it is the key step from letters to reading words.

Each consonant has twelve forms, one for each vowel sign (matra), including the plain consonant with the inherent 'a' sound.

Start with क (ka). Once your child can read and write all twelve forms of one consonant, the same pattern applies to every other consonant.

It suits children roughly aged 4 to 7 who already recognise the basic consonants and are ready to combine them with vowels.

Yes. They're designed for beginner learners and can be used by children anywhere in the world, including Indian families in the USA, Canada, the UK, Australia, the UAE, Singapore and New Zealand.

No. The worksheets start from the very first letters, so children who have never seen Devanagari can begin here and learn to recognise and trace each letter step by step.

Yes. They work well for homeschool and parent-led learning — print what you need and practise a little each day at home.
