Butterfly Dot Daub

💡Tips for Parents

▸ What to do Dab a dot inside every circle! ▸ Start with an example Suggest completing one whole wing before starting the other, rather than jumping between both wings — finishing one side fully gives a visible sense of "half done," which helps sustain motivation through a page with more circles than usual. Before starting, it can help to count roughly how many circles there are together, so the quantity doesn't surprise your child partway through. Dab a dot inside every circle! ▸ If it is difficult If your child's energy or focus starts to drop partway through the second wing, a short break is completely fine — point out how much of the first wing is already finished as encouragement that the page is more than halfway done, not starting over. After the break, it's better to let your child decide on their own to come back rather than rushing them to finish. ▸ Check before continuing Butterfly Dot Daub — Check the completed work using this instruction: Dab a dot inside every circle!
