tweezers, scales & chopsticks
Wednesday, February 24th, 2010
Little pots of small interesting goodies such as beads, buttons, stones, corks etc…
… are just waiting to be popped onto the measuring scales to have their weights checked and compared.
We find adding the tweezers not only makes it more fun, but adds to the fine motor skill needed to accomplish the task.
The doll at the back in the chair is a prop to make the activity look more enticing, but of course, will probably become part of the play!
And there she goes!
Donna then brought along an old photo frame from home which has various compartments for different sized photos.
She took out the photos and glass and popped different coloured paper into each space with another selection of small bits and pieces.
Once again lots of wonderful fine motor activity …
and sorting took place.
More great play based learning!
