chalkie

Chalkie font is a free handwritten typeface with the loose, dusty energy of real chalk dragged across a blackboard. Its tall, lanky letters and rough, inky edges feel spontaneous and a little messy in the best way—casual, friendly, and full of motion. The strokes vary in weight just enough to feel human, like quick notes scrawled before the bell rings.

Using Chalkie, your layouts instantly pick up a classroom, café-board, or DIY craft vibe, so it shines on kids’ posters, lesson materials, quote graphics, recipe cards, social posts, and playful branding. This free font works beautifully when you run it large for headlines and pair it with a simple sans serif for body copy to keep everything readable and fun.
