Free printables for kindergarten: Sight word help, 12 ways

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Finding all of these free sight word printables for kindergarten instantly brings me back to those sweet early days of school, sniff.I have teens now, but I remember how scary it could be to send your kid off to kindergarten, hoping that their reading and writing skills were on track with the other kids. So I wanted to spend a little extra time finding some helpful free sight word printables and worksheets for you kindergarten parents — or those of you with preschoolers who are already starting to read.

My only advice: Don’t let it stress you out. Please.

Whether you’re worried about your slower reader, or bragging about your kindergartener’s interest in War & Peace (as if), it all more or less evens out eventually. Hang in there.

Just find the one that seems like it works best for you. While most are free, there are a few that cost a few dollars but we still think are worth sharing.
