Pin It Now!
We recently got some Do-A-Dot markers (also known as bingo markers or bingo daubers) and I was so excited to get started with them. Avery has played with them before and loves them so I was looking forward to having some here at home. We've used with them on plain paper but I thought it might be fun to find some coloring sheets to use with them. I didn't realize how difficult it would be to find some free ones online. There are quite a few alphabet ones but I'm not quite ready to start the alphabet with her. So I looked around and found some websites that offer free printable Do-A-Dot marker coloring sheets. Here is what I found...
DLTK- a large collection, divided into seasons, holidays, animals, and other. Easy to print, can choose from color or black and white, can print ad free.
Making Friends- choose from Christmas tree or ornament or wreath, bubble gum, easter egg, flower, or train
Scribd.com offers a train and car Do-A-Dot coloring sheets (from Lessons from the Boys)
Bubble gum machine from Making Learning Fun (not officially a Do-A-Dot one but can be used as one)
This rainbow can be modifies to use with Do-A-Dot markers (from Mrs. Kilburn's Kiddos)
Christmas Tree from the Confessions of a Homeschooler's downloadable Preschool Christmas Activities
3 Dinosaurs has a great Fall Pack of Dot Marker sheets.
Dora Dot Marker Printables from The Activity Mom
3 Dinosaurs has some great dot marker pages: Space, Halloween, more Halloween, and Sight Words
Although I have not started the alphabet formally (we do still talk about it but once she gets older I want to do the alphabet as a theme and use the materials from 1+1+1=1), we are working on colors, shapes, and numbers. So I found some great Do-A-Dot activity sheets for those.

Wow! Thank you for the awesome idea. You've really done some research! I'm looking forward to checking out these sites!
ReplyDeleteYes, well done! I found some dot markers barely used at a garage sale for $2, so I'm excited to start using them. Thanks for the ideas!
ReplyDeleteYou know, I keep seeing those books and markers (I randomly got an alphabet book for Nate WITHOUT the markers - not so much fun) and really want them, but I just know Nate will make a huge permanent mess with them. Is Avery good about just using them on paper? Nate's pretty good with the crayons, but occasionally I will look away and all of a sudden he's coloring the carpet. AHHH!
ReplyDeleteHi Liz. I did a Google search for activities using bingo markers and came across your list. Thank you so much for sharing.
