Pinch strength refers to the fingers, specifically the thumb and index finger (the middle finger can also assist when needed).
Pinch grip is needed for many fine motor and everyday activities that your child will do.

– Peel stickers
– Peel fruit (lemons, oranges, etc)
– Turn keys in a lock
– Deal cards
– Use tongs to pick up small objects
