Strengthen those hands by squeezing a tennis ball with a slit in it... and "feeding" the mouse, or alien, or any little critter you'd like to make. Fun for OT!

Great activity to encourage fine motor, motor planning and creativity.

The way these work is that you make lots and lots of individual flower sections that the kids can thread into each other and be taken apart again easily to make many different kinds of chains for head dresses, necklaces, bracelets or just long decorative garlands. It would work out to be a really neat fine motor skill activity for preschoolers.
