- Slide them into a sheet protector or laminate them. You don’t have to do this but trust me, you’re going to want to!
- Use various colors of playdough to create the shapes. For instance, the sun is yellow so having the kids use yellow playdough to build the sun will help with color coordination.
- Have the kids read the pages and trace the words of the image with washable markers. Each page has a color image on it, so kids can copy the color and design of each playdough mat.
