Made for toddlers and tot school, with circles big enough for little hands to succeed.

WHAT MAKES IT WORK
One mat, many ways to play: dot markers, stickers, fingerprints, paint, cotton balls, crumpled paper or play dough.
Pressing, peeling and dabbing build the pincer grasp and hand strength that come before writing.
The color mats are made to be laminated and reused; the black and white mats save ink.
