What to Do
Begin by downloading and printing the counting raindrops clip cards.
We recently signed up for the HP Instant Ink program and are loving it! They offer several different plans (such as $4.99 for 100 pages a month) and will automatically send you new cartridges before you even need them.
We are now saving SO MUCH money (and time) on ink and I don’t feel guilty printing out new printables and playdough mats each day. If you want to check it out, ordering through our link here will give you 1 free month.
You can use just about any HP printer but we’ve been using this compact one and absolutely love it! The color is gorgeous and matches my decor (we’ll call that a win!) and the size is smaller than any printer I’ve ever owned which is great for small spaces (or living room/dining room offices).
Between HP Instant Ink and our compact printer, my printing life truly has become so much easier to print all these fun playdough mats and activity sheets we’ve been making lately.

Once you’ve printed, laminated, and cut out your raindrop counting clip cards, it’s time to have some fun!
Counting Raindrops Clip Card Use Ideas
To play, simply place the clip cards and clothespins out for your child and invite your child to select one card, count the number of raindrops, and clip a clothespin onto the correct value. Continue until they have clipped all the cards.
Don’t have clothespins? You could also use small balls of playdough, glass stones, buttons, or pom poms. The possibilities are endless!
You could also use these sheets with dry erase markers.
