Christmas Do-A-Dot Pages

by Angela Thayer 77 Comments

Are you looking for a simple Christmas-themed activity? These Christmas Do-A-Dot pages are not only fun, but have great learning benefits, too!

What Are Do-a-Dot Markers?

Do-a-Dot markers are great toddler and preschool friendly paint markers. They are a perfect size and easy to hold for little ones. On the end is a round sponge tip filled with paint. When you press down on the sponge, the paint comes out! You can choose to make circles by stamping or move the marker around to make lines. They are washable, too! The paint dries very quickly, which is a great when you are doing crafts with young children.

Benefits to Dot Marker Activities

When using Do-A-Dot markers on printables like the one I’m sharing today, they will need to stamp their marker on the circles. This is great for helping kids develop hand-eye coordination. Kids also strengthen fine motor skills since they are holding the dot marker and they have to press down to apply the marker to the page.

We love these do-a-dot markers, but you could also use dot stickers or regular markers to fill in the circles.

  • bell
  • candle
  • candy cane

    Dot markers are a favorite with my preschoolers. They love the colors and the stamping; I love the skills that I can work on with them while they use it. We can always use dot markers in our little class.

    I have loved using dot markers (we used to call them “bingo daubers” with kids in the past. They’re another great way to practice hand-eye coordination and motor skills. I’ve used them with sheets like these, to fill shapes, to add texture to artwork (they’re great for making scales on fish or mermaid tails, etc) and to write names.

    I’ve been interested in these types of “markers” before but have been hesitant because of the potential mess if not used properly. I think the Shimmer colors would be fun to use on the Christmas pages!

    I love dot markers. It helps with hand eye coordination and lets my students be creative. Many students are not developing the hand muscle or hand eye coordination, so the dot markers will make a difference.

    My students love Do-a-Dot markers (we call them dabbers)! We typically use them when learning a new letter – they dab the circles inside of the letter. It’s great hand-eye coordination for them to practice getting the dabber inside the circle! They are always asking to do more!
