Fine Motor Skills Activity ....

Sticks in a hole is a great fine motor skills activity for young ones. It develops their pincer grip as they are to pick up small sticks and insert into tiny holes.


I picked up these cheese shakers from my local junk shop for around $2.00 a few months back. And the coloured sticks can also be found in the craft isle, and don't cost that much.


Present the activity to your child in an appealing manner when they are feeling fresh and alert.


I place our learning activities on a coloured tray to attract their attention. Show your child how to pick up the stick and insert it into one of the holes. You may need to show them a few times.


Once they understand how do it, sit back and enjoy watching them learn from this fun yet simple activity.



Enjoy
