Inside: A collection of the easiest dot stickers learning activities for preschoolers. Set up these dot sticker activities in less than a minute!
Dot stickers deserve a busy-mum-life-savior award. On days when I need to whip out something quick to keep my children busy, I know I can always count on them.
It can be as easy as me rolling out a piece of paper and telling my kids "create anything with dot stickers" and my children will go crazy (in a happy sort of way) peeling and sticking away.
I'm not joking.
Just look at them working on this Dot Sticker Wall Art together.
It's little wonder that you can always find a huge stash of dot stickers in my cupboard.

Where to Buy Dot Stickers?
(This list contains affiliate links. Please see our disclaimer for details.)
My favorite brand of dot stickers is the Pack of 2100 Neon Labels Dot Stickers from Amazon. I love the 3/4in size for most activities.
If you like each color to be on separate sheets, check out the ChromaLabel brand. The only thing I do not like about this brand is that it doesn't include purple and I can't have all the rainbow colors. #realproblem
You can also find dot stickers at most stationery or office supplies stores. Daiso is another place to find cheap dot stickers.
