Sophie in Cursive

How to write the name Sophie in cursive — watch it drawn, trace every stroke, and take the free worksheet to paper.

Sophie takes 3 strokes to write in cursive — the capital S on its own, then o-p-h-i-e in one continuous stroke; then go back to dot the i. The animation below draws it on the writing lines exactly the way children practice it in Scribble; trace it after, then take the worksheet to paper.
