BRIGHT, Engaging, Double-Sided Learning

Whistle blows, the ball is in play, and the game begins! Tot Talk’s Let’s Play: Soccer placemat gives kids a clear, exciting way to learn soccer before stepping onto the field. With colorful illustrations and easy-to-follow explanations, children quickly understand how the game works and build confidence through play.

Front Side

The front side introduces kids to the soccer field layout and player positions. Children learn where each player stands, how teams are organized, and how the game flows from defense to offense. A labeled soccer field helps kids visualize boundaries, goals, and key areas, making the sport feel familiar and approachable.

Back Side

The wipe-clean back side dives into basic soccer rules and skills. Kids learn how a soccer game starts, how goals are scored, and why only the goalie can use their hands. Step-by-step illustrations introduce essential soccer moves like dribbling, passing, heading, and shooting. Children can practice concepts, trace movements, and play again and again with washable or dry-erase markers.
