Snowman Play Dough Mats

Snow Math Play Dough Mat

Here is a new set of math play dough mats for Winter themes.

The top of each mat says “[#] snowflakes are falling.” Children will identify the numeral, and count out that amount of snowflakes to place on the mat. Children can create the snowflakes/snowballs with bits of white play dough. {Just have them roll small bits of play dough into little “snowballs”.} If you prefer to use something other than play dough, you could use white pom poms or foam snowflake shapes.

I also made a mat that does not have a number, but simply says, “Make some falling snowflakes.” This mat is for toddlers who are not ready for counting yet, but need to practice fine motor skills with play dough.
