My 20 Top Fine Motor Activities with Ingrid King
September 6, 2022 @ 5:00 pm - 7:30 pm
ECTA WEBINARS ARE FOR MEMBERS ONLY
To attend join ECTA at https://ecta.org.au/shop
OUTLINE:
Children spend up to 60% of their time in class using their hands in fine motor activities for learning. But these days many struggle due to a lack of strength and coordination. As an occupational therapist, over a number of years, I have successfully used 20 specific fine motor activities to help young children accelerate their fine motor development. In this webinar, we will watch short activity videos where I play with a 4 and 5 year old. Watch how to build strength and coordination, develop good pencil grasp, enjoy colouring-in, teach basic scissor skills while integrating early learning concepts.
