DIY Dry Erase Activity Book for Toddlers + Preschoolers (+ Older Kids Too!)
I was just refreshing the little books and toys we keep in our car, when I realized I had never shared about this Dry Erase Activity Book I made for our first kid years ago (and now our youngest uses it). It was incredibly easy to make and tailor to each child with what stage they were at/needed to work on. Here’s the super easy how-to, hopefully it will inspire you to make one yourself! | This post contains affiliate links |
Materials
How-To:
Really the how-to could not be easier! All you have to do is cut the computer paper in half to make it the correct size to fit in the sheet protectors, and then create your worksheets however you would like. I used dots for the kids to trace as well as made some free-draw pages and pages for them to practice writing out their whole names. In the pocket we keep a dry erase marker and some folded up paper towels to wipe the pages when they’re done.
We love this as a car toy and activity to do while the oldest is doing soccer practice, etc. And as your child grows you can update the pages with anything - math problems, maps to label, spelling practice, etc. Have fun tailoring it your kids and their age groups - we love that this can grow with our kids.
Page Ideas (for both young kids and older kids):
tracing shapes
tracing letters (uppercase and lowercase)
tracing numbers
writing name (all uppercase as well as with lowercase)
free draw pages
matching
math problems
spelling practice
labeling maps
labeling planets
draw features (eyes, hair, etc) on a blank face
draw details on a landscape photo
come up with your own - the possibilities are endless!
