Fine Motor: Chopstick Spring Pattern Cards

You will need:

• Chopsticks
• Small Erasers
• PDF Pattern

The Activity:

Chopsticks are not only for eating, they can be used for building fine motor skills. In this activity, children will learn how to properly grasp chopsticks and use them to pick up small erasers. We will then use the small erasers to create a pattern.

Goals:

Using chopsticks can help improve fine motor skills, eye-hand coordination, strengthen the hand and little fingers, and improve visual perception. Use different kinds of patterns to find the “just right” challenge for your child.

Are you ready to learn?
