Playdough Balls

Next, and a fan favorite, is using playdough balls to fill the dots! Every toddler and preschooler loves to explore play-doh and this puts his or her fine motor skills to work!

Have your child count out how many balls he or she needs of play dough to fill the dots. Then have him or her begin to roll that many dough balls. It is the perfect way to add counting to the learning and exploration of the dot pages.

Finally, have your child use the playdough balls to do dot counting as he or she fills in the dots!

Another favorite of toddlers and preschoolers is stickers! Put your child’s love of stickers to good use by using them alongside do a dot pages!

Supply your child with dot stickers and have him or her use dot stickers to fill in the dots. Your child will really put his or her fine motor skills to work here as they try and place the stickers in exactly the right way on the dot pages.

Loose Parts

Have you ever tried playing with loose parts? Loose parts are open-ended materials that a child can manipulate, move, and adapt in play and exploration.

Loose parts can be found in nature such as rocks and shells or be made such as wooden loose parts. We love using our wooden loose parts to fill in our dot pages.

This way we can reuse our dot pages over and over! We love to use our loose parts and dot pages to explore numbers by counting out how many we will need to fill the dot page and then placing them on the page!
