Ocean Commotion: Number and Literacy Playdough Mats

May 3, 2018 by Selena Robinson 1 Comment

I’ve always had a special place in my heart for the coast. I grew up near it and the smell of sea air is basically the best scent on earth (in my humble opinion).

Kids love the ocean too! And that’s why I thought that the ocean would be a fun theme for a new set of number and literacy playdough mats for preschoolers. These are so perfect for summer alphabet and number learning!

Little ones can use these playdough mats and their favorite playdough colors to form all of the uppercase and lowercase letters from A to Z and the numbers from 0 to 9!
