ββ¨Fine Motor Skill Developmentβ¨β
Fine motor development isnβt all about picking up a pencil and making marks! βοΈ
Before children are ready to confidently write, they need to develop the muscle strength, coordination and control in their hands and fingers. πͺπ€
There are lots of fun ways we can support this development, from tracing shapes and outlines, cutting and tearing paper, to threading, squeezing, pinching, manipulating playdough and exploring different tools and materials. βοΈπ§©π
These everyday experiences help children build the foundations they need for future writing skills, independence and hand-eye coordination β all through playful learning! π
At Nurtured@Ecclesfield, we love providing our children with opportunities to explore, practise and develop skills at their own pace. πΏβ¨
