fine motor skills practice

This is a really simple and fun activity to do at home with your children to help improve fine motor skill development. All you need is a kebab stick (beware of the pointy edges), a small bit of playdough (i'm posting a recipe for home made playdough in a few minutes under the Activities to do at home label) and Cheerios cereal or some other type of cereal with the same shape.
 
 
 
 
 
What your child has to do, is : hold the kebab stick in one hand and use the other to fit in the doughnut shaped cereal into it. It may be a bit tricky until they get the hand of it. (especially with toddlers)
