Shapes Playdough Mats

Every story begins with a shape. A circle becomes a glowing sun, a square becomes a cosy home, and a triangle becomes a mountain peak. As a children’s author, I designed these Shape Discovery Mats to be a "multi-sensory canvas" where little learners can master the building blocks of our world in three powerful ways.

This instant 8 page PDF download invites your child to be the architect. By sculpting, drawing, and writing, they transform abstract geometry into a physical, visual, and literary adventure.

Why this 3-in-1 approach belongs in your learning library:

The Sculpting Phase: Using playdough to outline a hexagon or a star helps children "feel" the angles and curves. This builds spatial awareness and hand strength.

The Drawing Phase: Each mat features a creative space for your child to pick up a dry-erase marker and draw the shape themselves. This bridges the gap between tactile play and artistic confidence.

The Writing Phase: Once the shape is built and drawn, the "Write & Wipe" section allows them to practice the spelling of the shape's name. It’s a complete literacy loop from hand to heart to head.

Infinite Reusability: Designed specifically to be laminated! Use these as a "magic" wipe-clean surface for daily practice with markers and dough.
