Free Insect Dot Marker Printables

As a mom of two kids I’ve always been a fan of low-cost and low mess activities. Sometimes you just need something easy that you can do with your kids that doesn’t require half an hour of cleaning up afterwards!

Dot markers are pretty new to me but I love how easy they are to use especially as they have a thicker pen that’s perfect for little hands.

Bugs, insects and minibeasts are always a popular topic with kids, both because they’re something that kids seem to be naturally curious about and because it’s a great topic to team up with spending more time outdoors.

While I know that a snails and spiders aren’t actually insects (a snail is a mollusk and a spider is an arachnid) I know that they’re both animals that my kids were interested in and they fit well with a preschool minibeast topic so I had to include them!

These bug dot art activities are a great way to help support your child’s fine motor skills and color recognition and if you like dot marker activities then you might want to check out our spring dot marker printables, summer dot marker printables and farm animal dot marker printables too.
