- Use the activity mats for coloring fun with dry erase markers.
- Use those dry erase markers to practice copying the spring theme words.
- Challenge your kids to think of other spring items - and make their own on the back of the pages.
- Use these spring playdough mats as conversation starters or writing prompts for simple words, sentences, or have your kids tell you a story and you jot it down for them.

Sensational Ways to Enjoy These Spring Playdough Mats
There are so many ways to use these free printable playdough mats to enjoy hands-on activities this spring!
You can try to match your playdough to the colors on the spring items. Or get creative and use what you like or have.
You can also put the playdough in your hands and roll back and forth to make "snakes" (that's what we've always called them). Or roll into small balls.
Another incredible idea is to place a larger amount of playdough on the mat and use a rolling pin (or your hands) to flatten. Then, use a dull knife or other tool to "cut out" the pieces. It's a wonderful way for little hands to make these spring themes!
