Share the Learning

Hey there! Are you looking for a fun and educational activity to do with your little one? Look no further! Today, I want to share with you an awesome activity that combines learning the alphabet with hands-on fun โ€“ Alphabet Play-Doh Mats!

What are Alphabet Play-Doh Mats?

They’re essentially printable sheets with each letter of the alphabet on them. These ones include two images that start with the letter, the letter shape, and traceable letters for them to practice writing.

You can print them out and laminate them or put them in plastic sleeves to make them reusable. Then, your child can use Play-Doh to form the letters on the mats.

Why are Alphabet Play-Doh Mats great?

For starters, they’re a fantastic way to help your child learn the alphabet. By seeing and feeling the shapes of the letters, they can better understand and remember them. Plus, using Play-Doh adds a sensory element to the activity, making it even more engaging for little ones.

Here’s how you can use Alphabet Play-Doh Mats with your child:

  1. Print out the mats.
  2. Laminate the mats or slip them into plastic sleeves to make them durable and reusable.
  3. Set out some Play-Doh in various colors. You can use store-bought Play-Doh or make your own with a simple recipe.
  4. Encourage your child to pick a mat and choose a color of Play-Doh.
  5. Show them how to roll the Play-Doh into snakes and shape them to form the letters on the mat.
  6. As they work, talk to them about each letter. What sound does it make? Can they think of words that start with that letter?
  7. Use a dry erase marker to trace and practice writing each letter (uppercase and lowercase).
