In my classroom, playdough isn’t just fun—it’s the perfect way to start the school year!
We use playdough to get little hands moving, build confidence, and express creativity—especially during those first few weeks back to school. These Back to School & All About Me Playdough Mats are designed to help young learners feel seen, safe, and excited to learn!
With these mats, students will explore who they are, where they come from, and what they love. Each mat encourages self-expression while strengthening fine motor skills. Whether they’re shaping their own face, adding details to their family home, or packing their school bag and lunch box, kids are actively learning and creating at the same time!
What’s included?
12 engaging, themed playdough mats: a school bus they must fill with students, a playgroung, their family, a backpack, lunchbox…
Each one sparks meaningful conversations and helps you get to know your students, all while keeping them engaged and smiling.
Perfect for:
- Back to School Centers
- All About Me Week
- Morning Tubs
- Calm Down Corners
- First Week of Kindergarten or Pre-K
You’ll love how simple it is to prep (just print and laminate!)—and your students will love showing off who they are in the most hands-on way possible.
Wishing you a joyful and creative start to the school year!
Love,
The Indian Lion
