Benefits of do a dot printables
Do a dot marker pages aren’t just no-prep fun - they’re beneficial for your child. Do a dot worksheets can help your child develop skills like their hand-eye coordination, grip strength, finger strength, manual dexterity, and fine motor skills. Unfortunately, more and more children are starting school with inadequate fine motor skills and poor manual dexterity. Researchers think this is because of increased screen time and decreased time for other non-screen activities. This study found that preschooler’s manual dexterity was inversely related to their screen time. In other words, the more screen time the preschooler received, the worse their manual dexterity was. I know sometimes you really, really just need a break no matter what. I’ve been there, done that. But instead of listening to Baby Shark for the 27,538th time, try giving your ears a break with these winter do a dot pages. =)
How to use dot marker pages
These pages were based on the measurement of my daughter’s Classic Do a Dot Markers. The circles are perfectly sized for this line of markers, but they also work fine with other dauber style markers. It’s best to store your markers on their sides (with lids tightly closed!) to keep the dauber foam coated with ink. For a no-mess activity, use these dot printables with colorful round label stickers. This makes a great quiet time activity for car rides, plane trips, and doctor’s offices. Make sure to get ⅝" or ¾" round stickers - 1" round stickers are too big for the circles on the printables. Another fun way to play is with small manipulatives like pompoms or big buttons. We’ve been using this set of wool pom poms with our winter activity printables:
