This weekend, try this tip to help strengthen your child’s fine motor skills - the ones that will be responsible for how well she can grip and move a pencil.

Take a couple of sheets of stickers, and give her another blank sheet of paper.  Draw empty squares  on the blank sheet of paper, and ask her to remove each sticker and stick it in an empty square on the blank sheet.

Let her try not not to go over the lines of the square.  Depending on the age of your child, make the squares as big or  as small as she can handle.

Enjoy!
