We’ve got the cutest little monsters to get your kiddos excited to learn with our Monster Activities for Preschool. Morning tubs are often used as students are coming in and settling in for the day. Kids are engaged while take home folders are being opened and checked, attendance is being taken, and those types of daily tasks. Math and Literacy Centers are great for a couple of reasons.
Looking for the manipulatives we used with our Monster Math & Literacy Centers? We’ve collected all the links for you in one easy place, and we may even get a small commission when you buy through these links. It’s a great way to support our blog at no cost to you.

Our Laminator and Laminating Sheets.
Monster Patterns
Add your favorite manipulative (buttons, pom poms, circle cereal) and complete the cute patterns.
Building Monsters
How tall is your monster? Use cubes to build you tower and copy the pattern.
Monster Cookies
Fill the cookie with the correct number of sprinkles. Add kids size tweezers for fine motor practice too.
Monster Subitizing
We love this number sense activity for counting and number recognition.
Monster Measurement
Non standard measurement is an important early math skill. Use any small item to measure monster and show the number used with a toy number.
Monster Words
Practice your sight words by tracing them. Next you can create them in playdough with letter stamps or build them with toy letters.
Monster Shapes
We love this activity for hands on fun to work on shape formation and recognition.
Monster Spots
Finish the pattern by placing a monster on each spot.
Monster Eyes
Create your monster by counting out the correct number of googly eyes.
Monster Letters
Letter searches are perfect for practicing letter recognition. Cover each matching letter with your choice of small toys or manipulatives.

Hi!! I absolutely love everything you do!!! I’m a Pre K 4 teacher and will be doing a lesson on patterns in the upcoming weeks. I love the monster spots activity. I am looking for the monster manipulatives . I found the finger puppets through the link you set up but haven’t found the other. Can you tell me where I can purchase these?
Thanks,
Vicky
Hi!
Thank you so much.
For the monster spots, we are actually using buttons that we found at Michaels craft store.
great thx!
Hi Vicky! The monster manipulative you are referring to are monster buttons as Kara said. I got mine at Walmart in case you don’t find them at Michaels. I believe the brand name is Dress It Up buttons if this helps.
