What is your favourite?

Here are some activities your child could do at home to help continue to develop their fine motor skills.

Using pegs or spoons – transfer objects from one bowl to another such as beans, beads, buttons, rice etc.

Using scissors – just cutting to start with then cutting on the line, shapes etc

Ripping – smaller kids just like ripping paper, maybe it’s the sound? Older kids you can rip up an old magazine to make pictures & collages 

Elastic bands (or hair bobbles) onto different sized objects. A bag of elastic bands can bring a lot of fun. Try putting them over bottles or a can. On door handles is another good one.

Peeling fruit – peeling tangerines/oranges, bananas.

Here is a fun story about a potato who is a superhero. Some of the children in nursery last week enjoyed dressing up and pretending to be their favourite superheroes.
