Not all Shias do that.
But some of us pray on it because we believe that putting our forehead on a material, which is not made directly by Allah, is a bad thing. So instead of praying directly onto the mat, we use a turba, or if there is no truba we can use paper, tissue or a leaf
But Zaydi Shias dont do that. Many twelver Shias dont do that either.

both pray 5 times a day. but shia do 2,3 and 4,5 pray together (also separated is allowed). and sunni do usually 5 pray separated. so it may seem shia do only 3 pray a day. but in fact both do 5 pray a day. shia and sunni have mostly same beliefs and both believe in fundamental beliefs of Islam. today there is up to 260 sect in Islam that are in two category of shia and sunni. shia believes in Allah, prophet and all fundamentals of Islam. there is some differences in details of pray like how to hold hands in pray and on what do the genuflect (for shia should be on a stone or part of earth and for sunni on carpet or floor ). shia believe after death of prophet God selects the successive for prophet who is the leader of Muslim community and people can not select it. shia believe the Caliph (Representative of God in earth after prophet) is appointed only by God and can not be selected by people because God said in Koran: "Indeed, I will make upon the earth a successive authority." (Quran 2:30) this means only God can select an Islamic leader. in shia they are only fourteen infallible (12 Imams and prophet and his daughter Fatimah Zahra (sa)) and all of them are the same and have no mistake and have the knowledge of everything (this knowledge is from God and by permission of God and is not absolute knowledge. absolute knowledge is only for God and they still do not know many things. but they know anything human may need to know.) and they never die and they hear all sayings and even thinks of all humans after their death by permission of God and they are intermediates between God and human. and shia Muslims always support them and forgive their lives for them. shia Muslims do not consider selection of Abubakr as Caliph valid because God did not select him. they believe God ordered prophet to declare Ali is selected as successor of prophet (Quran 5:3) and prophet did this mission in Ghadir event that was in last Hajj of prophet in his life and prophet did a speech for 120,000 Muslims participating that Hajj with prophet. the famous shia book Al-Ghadir is a collection of evidences and proofs for Ghadir Hadith from 100,000 sunni references and read all of 10,000 sunny books. one sunni scholar said if we want to reply Al-Ghadir book (by Allameh Amini) we should first destroy all our books.
