How do I make dotted letters for tracing purposes in Word?

[momneedsehlp]

I am trying to make traceable words for my son so he can practice writing. I
would like for the words to be the dash kind of letters that he uses at
school.
like this only in letter forms-------.

WordArt would be a solution
Try to find a font that is simple, format it with no fill and a dashed line.
