HSK 2 learners who want to talk about the people closest to them — parents, siblings, children, and friends — can use this free printable worksheet to build confidence writing those characters by hand. After tracing and writing these eleven family terms, you'll recognize and reproduce them without hesitation in conversation or on exams.
The worksheet covers eleven HSK 2 vocabulary words centered on family members, kids, friends, and love. You'll trace and write 爸爸 (bà ba) and 妈妈 (mā ma), siblings like 哥哥 (gē ge) and 姐姐 (jiě jie), and relationships like 朋友 (péng you) and 爱 (ài). Each word appears in a 田字格 (tián zì gé) tracing grid with pinyin printed above it.
Start by tracing the guided strokes for each character, feeling the stroke order and proportions within the grid. Then move to the blank 田字格 boxes and write each character from memory. Say each word aloud as you trace — pairing the sound with the motion helps lock it in. Print the page directly or download it as a PDF; no signup is needed.
The vocabulary matches SayMei's course weeks, so you can pair this handwriting practice with our HSK 2 lessons hub page for speaking and listening work.

You can also explore other HSK 2 themes like the printable "Ordering & Paying" worksheet (HSK 2) or the printable "Shopping & Stores" worksheet (HSK 2).
