It's Dot's birthday and your little maker is on a mission to make the perfect gift!

Your dabbler will love building and painting their very own sausage dog, sculpting a clay bowl and bone, and designing a one-of-a-kind bandana using textile markers. This story-led mission takes kids through painting wooden pieces, assembling a 3D dog with a funny spring, hand-decorating fabric, tracing and cutting foam ears, and sculpting with air-dry clay.

All with easy-to-follow illustrated instructions that support them every step of the way.

Perfect for curious kids ready to dive deeper into making, Dot the Dog builds real creative skills while sparking imaginative play they'll come back to again and again.

What will they learn?

Dabble & Co. projects nurture creativity while building lifelong skills through hands-on making. 

In the Dot the Dog mission, kids practice their: 

Fine Motor Skills

When kids' fine motor skills improve, tasks cost them less effort which in turn boosts their motivation, attention, and independence. Some of the fine motor skills practiced in this project include:

  • Fine grip control
  • Peeling and handling small components
  • Kneading and sculpting clay

Executive Skills

These are the control functions of the brain that we all need to solve problems, regulate our emotions, and work purposefully at school and at home. In this project we practice executive skills by: 

  • Following a plan 
  • Organization 
  • Focus and attention 
  • Working memory 
  • Flexibility 

Two-Handed Collaboration

Each hand is controlled by a different side of the brain, so two-handed tasks help create faster information exchange and stronger connections. In this project kids practice two-handed collaboration through:

  • Tracing and cutting
  • Kneading and rolling clay
  • Assembling 3D components

What skills will my kids learn from Dabble & Co. craft kits?

Dabble & Co. projects go beyond just fun; they are designed to nurture lifelong skills through hands-on making. Creativity helps build essential childhood development milestones, including:
