If you’ve never experienced the magic of Do-A-Dot markers, then you are missing out. Do-A-Dots (as they’re known on the street) are sponge tip applicator markers that are great for young kids, and basically produce perfect circles when you use them. So basically, they are bingo markers for kids:

Do-A-Dot markers are fun and a good spin on traditional coloring. You can find them in most craft stores and I often find them discounted at places like TJMaxx and Home Goods (they are a bit pricier than traditional markers). The best part is kids can use pre-made templates to “color” with! I’ve found a great collection of free printables that you will all enjoy, so keep scrolling!
