Tip of the Day for Fine Motor Skills:
Use a pair of tweezers to pick up cotton balls, buttons, pebbles, small beads and Lego Pieces. Kids can pretend to be a crane to pick them up from one pile or another. This is great in building muscles in the finger and pincer hold. This helps prepare them for using pencils, crayons, pencil-crayons and markers using the proper pincer and tripod hold (pincer with thumb and pointer finger, rest on the middle finger).
If you have the fuse bead art, you can us the tweezers to pick up the fuze beads and place them on the design plate.
