Road-marked tracing display
Tracing Roads
Tracing Roads is an outlined display in navy on white: rounded capitals drawn as hollow shapes with a dashed road running through each stroke, complete arrows and small car marks at the start of each route, set in two lines between a plain band above and a caption beneath, with two drawn cars at the sides.

Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Tracing Roads.
This is a teaching face dressed as a road, and the plate is honest about the mechanics: the dashed line is the path to follow and the car marks the start, so a child traces the letter as a route. That construction sets a large size floor, because the dashed road and the start marks vanish when the letters shrink, and the plate sets the letters large enough to be traced with a finger or a pencil. The two drawn cars are staging that name the subject. The caption beneath explains the mechanic in plain words, which is the most useful line on the sheet. It suits a worksheet, a nursery sign and a workbook.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Tracing Roads’s stroke geometry.
Worksheet for a letter class
A road-marked face turns a worksheet into a driving game, and the start marks teach the stroke order without a separate diagram.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
A4 worksheet: the letters at 40 mm cap height on 12 mm guide lines, four to a row, and one ink on a white sheet. Keep 20 mm margins and leave 12 mm between letters.
Pre-production check
Check the sheet at actual size, where the dashed road can be too fine for a pencil; keep it above 1 mm. Confirm the sheet photocopies with the arrows visible and that the letters sit on the guides.
Sign for a nursery room
A road display suits a nursery door, and the hollow letters read as part of the room's play material rather than as branding.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
A4 panel: the room name at 45 mm cap height, the age group at 16 mm, and one ink on a light card. Keep 22 mm margins and laminate the sheet for the door.
Pre-production check
Check the panel at 45 mm, where the dashed road can be lost behind the laminate; keep it above 1.2 mm. Confirm the 16 mm group reads at two metres and that the sheet hangs flat.
Card for a young child's birthday
A road face matches a child's interests, and the hollow letters read as a drawing rather than as a printed brand. The hollow letters read as a drawing.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
A6 card: the greeting at 30 pt, the details in a 10 pt sans, and the date at 9 pt. Keep 15 mm margins, print two colours on a white card and leave 12 mm at the foot for the address line.
Pre-production check
Check the 30 pt greeting at home-print resolution, where a dashed road can break into dots; keep it above 0.8 mm. Confirm the details keep a 4.5:1 contrast and that the card folds flat.
