Marathi Letter अ (a) Worksheet

  • Ages 3–7
  • Beginner friendly
  • Free printable PDF
  • A4 · print at home

Welcome to the very first letter of the Marathi mulakshare! अ makes a soft "a" sound, like the start of "about." In this worksheet your little one will trace अ slowly, following each gentle curve until the shape feels familiar and friendly.

We pair अ with the cheerful word अननस, which means pineapple. Saying the word out loud helps children connect the akshara to a sound they can picture and remember. Designed for ages 2 to 7, these tracing lines are big and forgiving, so tiny hands can practice again and again with confidence and a happy smile.

Free for home and classroom use. The preview shows a sample of the printable worksheet.
