A fun way to work on fine motor skills is with these Body Parts Playdough Mats. Children will enjoy working on their fine motor skills as they mould the playdough into the correct shapes that relate to a variety of different body parts. They will enjoy learning to control their hand, fingers and thumb movements which they will need throughout their life while learning about all things body related.

Body Parts Playdough Mats Activity
Enhance your child’s motor and sensory skills along with their concentration skill with these wonderful body parts themed printables.
This activity can instil a love of learning about body parts while engaging your child in a fun hands-on activity. In creating various body parts while practicing to write the name of the object in the lines, they will be working on their fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.
This play dough mat pack contains 30 full page playdough worksheets. Children can follow the colours on the mats or create the body parts out of colours that they choose. They are able to write the name of the item before or after creating the picture from playdough.
These worksheets can be laminated before using as then they can easily be wiped clean. Children will then use a dry-erase marker to write the name.
