Vegetable Lacing Cards With Free Printables

Why Use Lacing Cards for Kids?
Lacing cards are a great tool for little hands. By weaving a lace through the holes around each vegetable shape, kids work on important fine motor skills they’ll use for tasks like writing, drawing, and self-care activities (think buttoning up shirts!). Here’s what makes our vegetable-themed lacing cards so special.
What’s Included in the Free Printable
Our Vegetable Lacing Cards printable features popular veggies that kids can easily recognize, including:
- Carrot
- Tomato
- Broccoli
- Bell Pepper
- Onion
- Eggplant
Each card has holes punched around the edge of the vegetable shape, making it easy for kids to lace around each one.

Benefits of Using Vegetable-Themed Lacing Cards
1. Hands-On Learning
Lacing cards provide a multisensory experience, letting kids learn by touching and manipulating each card. This type of activity is perfect for kinesthetic learners who enjoy hands-on experiences.
2. Early Introduction to Healthy Foods
Our vegetable-themed lacing cards give young children early exposure to healthy foods in a fun and non-pressured way. You can even talk to kids about each vegetable’s name, color, and nutritional benefits as they lace!
3. Quiet, Mess-Free Activity
These lacing cards make an excellent quiet time activity at home, during classroom centers, or on the go. With no need for messy supplies, kids can enjoy a clean, fuss-free learning experience.
Tips for Getting the Most Out of Lacing Cards

- Make it a Group Activity: Encourage kids to work in pairs or small groups, taking turns lacing each card.
