I want Fun Time Fridays<\/span><\/em><\/strong> to be exactly that – FUN<\/span><\/em><\/strong>! I will be posting a minimum of one activity to complete with your child and many can be exciting for the entire family. It might be a simple activity, a game, a recipe, etc. An OT colleague from across the nation has also put together an OT Friday Fun<\/strong> Fine Motor Newsletter<\/span><\/em> with activities. The newsletters will be one of the resources I will be sharing with you. Feel free to email me pictures of your child completing the activities and having fun! If you would like, I can also post them on my blog, but only if you give permission! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s make paper airplanes! Creating and flying paper airplanes is not only fun, but also a neat way to practice following directions. In order for kids to make airplanes, they need to follow a specific set of steps. It’s a wonderful way to practice fine motor manipulation, visual planning and sequencing skills. Download the newsletter below for the instructions. You can also get creative and try making your own version of a paper airplane. Which one flies the furthest? You can have plane races!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The newsletter also has some great ideas to incorporate writing with the activity.
\u2022 Have your child write their name on the outside of the plane.
\u2022 On a separate sheet of paper, have your child make a list of all the countries the plane will go.
\u2022 Have your child name the plane and write the name on the side.
\u2022 On another sheet of paper, have your child write what they would do if they owned a plane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
