Description
How to use it: Design Your Own Dot Day T-Shirt
In short: 10 pages of t-shirt outlines waiting to be decorated. Ages 3-9. PDF download – prints on US Letter or A4.
An empty shirt on a page is a small invitation: make this one yours. Some children fill it with careful rows of dots, some cover it in paint, some glue on tissue paper until the shirt disappears underneath. All of them are right, which is rather the point of Dot Day.

Teacher tip: hang the finished shirts on a string with clothespins. It reads as a laundry line of ideas and takes five minutes to put up.
Questions teachers ask
Are the designs different from each other?
Yes, all 10 shirts have different shapes and details, so a class display does not look repetitive.
Does it work with paint?
It does. Print on slightly heavier paper if you plan on wet media.
Can I use it for a whole class?
Yes – print as many copies as you need, every year.
