What to Do
Begin by downloading and printing the jelly bean math worksheets. Or, if you are already a current newsletter subscriber, click here to access our resource library of free printables. 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 3 free months. 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.
Sometimes we laminate our playdough mats and sometimes we slip them into sheet protectors and tuck them in a 3-ring binder. Laminating is a bit more durable but if your little ones aren’t too rambunctious with their playdough mats, sheet protectors should work just fine.

Once you’ve printed and possibly even laminated your jelly bean math worksheets, it’s time to have some fun!
Jelly Bean Math Worksheets – Playtime Ideas
To use, place the worksheets out for your child, along with a pencil, and invite them to add up the jelly beans and write their answer in the empty jar.
Or, you could laminate the worksheets (or place them in sheet protectors or these), and set them out along with some playdough, buttons, or jelly beans and invite your child to add up those jelly beans.
You could also use these sheets with dry-erase markers and draw the correct number of jelly beans in each jar.
