Grab your favorite homemade or store-bought play dough, and encourage your kids to roll out the play dough into long snakes to cover the lines on these mitten mats.

They can mimic the patterns on the mittens or create their own! Whatever they choose, they are getting great fine motor practice.

If you don’t have play dough or don’t want to use play dough, you can also trace them using dry-erase markers as well! Invite your kids to trace the lines using various colors of markers and trace the lines to reflect the mittens’ patterns.
