What are Dot Markers?

If you don’t know what dot markers are, they’re simply bingo daubers; a bottle full of paint with a sponge top meant to dot and dab whatever you see fit!  Although, the ones intended for kids, are preferred so you can avoid staining clothes and other items. More importantly, if you don’t own a set I suggest you buy one now.  We consider them a classroom/home essential.

Dot markers are great for fine motor skills

Something to note, dot markers are a fun tool toddlers and preschool children can use to help develop their fine motor skills needed in order to develop strength and dexterity used for writing.

There are two versions: one with just flower pots and the other with “Happy Mother’s Day, Mom” on the other. 

Dot marker printable with the words Happy Mother's Day Mom.  There are 3 flower pots with circles to dot with a dot marker.
