Build Fine Motor Skills with Christmas Playdough Mats!

While using these Christmas playdough mats, kids will learn colours, shapes, develop fine motor skills and more. All in a fun, hands-on way! Use this teaching resource with early years students to start building skills such as:

  • Fine motor development
  • Colour recognition
  • Shape recognition

Benefits of Using Playdough Mats in the Early Years

Playdough mats are a great tool for early learners because not only are young children exposed to art in a fun way, but they are also using their hands and engaging their senses while doing so. 

When students roll and form playdough, they are developing fine motor skills that will help them with pencil control in the future.

This set of playdough mats includes 16 half-sheet-sized playdough mats featuring fun Christmas symbols and icons to make with playdough. We have also included a graphic organiser for older children to use to sketch/draw the designs they created.

Print and laminate each page for multiple use and easy cleaning.
