Kenji Name Tracing Worksheet
Some boys pick up Kenji's letter shapes within a few sessions; others need more repetition — both are within the normal range, and this worksheet is built to be reused as many times as needed.
Kenji is presented at a size and weight that photocopies clearly, so a single printed original can be duplicated for an entire class or family without the letters fading or blurring in the copy.
Kenji is included here as part of a genuinely growing set of pre-made worksheets, not a fixed, finished list — more names are added to Japan over time based on real, ongoing usefulness.
