We are working on fine motors skills this week. Small motor skills are essential for many everyday activites. These skills are necessary for independence, everyday activites, and self-care. Developing these skills requires maturity and practice, motor planning. Educators can help develop these motor skills by offering activites like fingerpainting, cutting with scissors, playing with playdough, using tweezers to pick up small objects, grasping small toys such as rattles and balls, small toys, and lacing beads.
