Fine Motor Wednesday!

At school we practice our fine motor skills.  Here are some ideas you can try at home today to practice refining your child’s skills:

  • Put together puzzles
  • Eat a spoon snack! Pudding, applesauce, yogurt, etc.
  • Build a block tower
  • Color
  • Paint
  • Put coins in a piggy bank
  • Stack cups
  • Pinch toothpicks and put them into the holes of an empty spice container
  • Pour water back and forth between containers (you can do this during bath time and it won’t make a mess!)
  • String beads or cereal (Fruit loops of Cheerios)

Check out the video below for more ideas of things you can do with items from around your house!
