This was such a fun project, an open art play. Children were very busy and they wouldn’t stop really. So much concentration and patience. Great work!
Beading
Fine motor skills workshop
We read a book Mog’s Christmas and we’ve made some Christmas decorations. Children were using natural materials, wire, beads and buttons. They created some lovely mobiles.
Pipe cleaners and beads
I find pipe cleaners and plastic pony beads somehow off-putting. I could include some other stuff here like googly eyes, school markers or colour-ins for example. I think with me anything to do with easy crafts goes in that brain field.
But I do know all these things are also really unbeatable. If you want to work on child’s coordination, on fine motor skills or just do something relaxing without them really need to think, hey, pipe cleaners, colour ins, pony beads, school markers, googly eyes!
And yes, why not.
This is a great and valuable exercise for little finger muscles and wrists, for concentration and patience. And they had much fun! More then I would like to admit! But I swipe my pride under this table.
