One of the basic rules of parenting is that kids are willing to play quietly as long as you don’t need them to. The second you need to make a call or get into the shower they “need” you or immediately get into everything and anything they aren’t supposed to play with!

That’s why busy bags and quiet time activities are so popular with parents of younger kids. We all need to be able to pull something out to keep the kids happy so we can get something else done.

These free printable monster play dough mats aren’t just cute–they are the perfect way for you to keep your kids engaged so you can finish your coffee!

Download and print the free printable monster play dough mats (see link below) and laminate them in some way.

You can use a laminator to laminate the pages or send them to a print center to be laminated for the most durable result, but that’s not the only way to keep them from tearing.

You can also cover the pages with clear contact paper or even stick them in clear page protectors in a pinch.
