Are dauber dot marker coloring pages good for my child?
Dab it pages are an easy, no-prep activity. But are they developmentally appropriate and beneficial for your child’s development? Yes! Dot marker pages are easy and no-prep for you, and they’re both fun and developmentally appropriate for your child. Dab it pages can help improve a variety of skills, including hand-eye coordination, grip strength, finger strength, concentration, and manual dexterity. Your child uses their fine motor skills for important tasks like using their fork/spoon to eat, brushing their own teeth, zipping, buttoning, and more.
How to print and use dot marker pages
The circles on these pages are based on the size of my daughter’s Classic Do a Dot Markers. The circles are perfectly sized for this brand of markers, but they also work fine with other dauber or bingo style markers.
These are the exact markers we use. We’ve been using them for almost three years at the time of writing. We use them frequently and they’re still working well. They can be a little spotty when they’re first used for the day.
Make sure to store dab it markers on their sides, not upright, and pounce a few times to get ink flowing (if needed). I usually pounce them on a piece of scrap cardboard.
To make the dot marker pages reusable, have your child cover the circles with pompoms, felt balls, or big buttons.
For more finger strengthening fine motor fun, have your child place the manipulative with a pair of toast tongs or silicone tongs. We like to use these wool felt balls:
For an easy, no-mess activity, use these vehicle dot it printables printables with round coding label stickers.
This is a great activity for car trips, doctor’s appointments, and any time when you just don’t feel like having yet another pair of pants stained with marker.
Coding label stickers are super affordable and can save you serious time and money. (They’re way cheaper and easier than repainting the walls in a rental house, for example…)
Stickers are also great fine motor practice - peeling them off the page is tricky for little fingers and placing them requires precision.
Make sure to get ⅝″ or ¾″ round stickers for these dot marker page. One inch round stickers are too big for these pages.
We use these stickers. You get literally thousands of them for just a few dollars. The set we purchased also comes with a reusable zip pouch to keep them contained. It’s a great deal.
