Mid-Autumn Festival Chinese Worksheet

中秋节 (zhōng qiū jié) — the Mid-Autumn Festival — falls in autumn when the moon is brightest and families gather to share mooncakes. This free printable worksheet gives you 田字格 (tián zì gé) tracing grids with pinyin above each character, so you can practice writing the vocabulary of this celebration by hand.

What's on the worksheet

Eight words from HSK 3.0 vocabulary lists cover the festival's key themes. You'll trace 月饼 (yuè bǐng), the mooncakes shared at every gathering, 月亮 (yuè liang), the moon at the center of the holiday, and 家人 (jiā rén), the family members you reunite with. The sheet also includes 团圆 (tuán yuán) for reunion, 灯笼 (dēng lóng) for the lanterns children carry, and 秋天 (qiū tiān) for the autumn season itself.

How to practice

Each word appears in guided 田字格 tracing grids: trace the strokes first while saying the word aloud, then write the character from memory in the blank grids beside it. Pinyin sits above every word so you connect sound, shape, and meaning at once. Print the page directly or download it as a PDF — no signup needed.

For extra repetition, you can also print blank printable 田字格 writing grid paper and copy the festival words as many times as you like.
