Using our hands

Students use the toothpick to punch holes along the lines. When they are done they can see the light shining through the holes.
Sewing is another activity that our students enjoy doing. It helps them to calm down and at the same time have some fun. 
Our students enjoy this fine motor practice.


Making a bracelet is also another activity that helps in improving their fine motor skills and also brings lots of enjoyment.
Working with playdoh encourage through rolling, pushing/pounding and stretching the development of children’s’ gross motor skills.  Smaller movements from pinching, poking, pushing and squeezing can help on their fine motor skills.
Playing with playdoh, punching with toothpicks and playing with beads builds hand dexterity and helps to calm down.
