Easy Mitten Outline Mats For Winter

This mitten outline is perfect for young children in preschool or kindergarten! This activity focuses on building fine motor skills, color recognition, simple science, and hand-eye coordination, essential building blocks for little learners!

Print the mitten outline pages (and laminate them if you want to reuse them), and let your kids fill the dots with matching colors. You can use dot markers, pom poms, or magnet circles – whatever you have on hand!

​Using dot markers, pom poms, and magnet circles doesn’t just make things colorful; it sharpens those hand-eye coordination skills, encourages color recognition, and introduces the science of magnets. Plus, counting and matching the dots is an excellent way to add in preschool math!

Enjoy an awesome, hands-on activity that boosts fine motor skills and helps your kiddos recognize colors. Plus, you can keep the fun going with the reusable pages!
