These ladybug shapes for preschool and early learners are a great way to teach them all about beginning shapes in a 2D way! Plus, since the focus on ladybugs, it’s a fun way to catch their attention as well.
Are you looking for a fun way to introduce your preschoolers and kindergarteners to 2d shapes? Then these Ladybug Shape Matching Mats are just what you need. They are a great way for children to practice learning their shapes while building their fine motor skills by cutting and pasting the matching shapes.

Ladybug Shape Matching Mats – Shapes for Preschool and Early Learners
These Ladybug Shape Matching Mats are a great way for children to learn about different 2d shapes while working on fine motor skills, as they place the correct ladybug on the leaf. While these tend to be shapes for preschool learning or other kindergarten learning, this can be a great resource for a wide variety of ages.
We love to do any type of ladybug learning because who doesn’t love those cute little insects? We’ve also had great success with these Ladybug Playdoh Math Counting Mats as well because using playdough while learning how to count is twice the fun!

These Ladybug Shapes for Preschool Matching Mats printable pack contains 2 printable mats.
To prepare these Mats:
Print out all the shapes for preschoolers’ pages on white cardstock. Laminate the two leaf mats and the ladybug shapes. Cut around the ladybug shapes. I do recommend laminating all the pieces for durability, though this is only a suggestion.
Ways to use these Mats:
- Laminate the mats and ladybugs. This is a great idea if you have multiple children and wish to reuse the mats.
- Have your child say the name of the shape as they place the colored ladybug on the black and white ladybug on the leaf. They could also practice tracing the shapes on the leaves as well.
