かきじゅん — Kakijun, or Stroke Order is the order in which you must draw hiragana for it to be correct.

The video below shows the correct way to right Hiragana A - N.
Just remember that traditionally, Japanese is written from top-down, & read right-to-left.

If the Video doesn’t show up the permanent link is here: http://www.ehow.com/video_4498380_write-japanese-alphabet-hiragana-part.html

I also found a Java-based application that will draw individual characters by stroke & at whatever speed you like.
