Fine Motor activities and play dough making

 Before we can learn to use a pencil to write, it is important that we build up the muscles in our hands.

There are lots of ways to do this, including playing with dough, cutting with scissors and pushing, pulling and rolling toys.

Watch the video below for some simple fine motor activities that you can do at home. 

Play dough is a brilliant way of building up these muscles.

Watch the video below to see how Mr Ormsby made his dough.
