Finger motor-skills game.
DIRECT AIM:
- visual discrimination of dimensions
INDIRECT AIMS:
- refinement of voluntary movement
- physical preparation for writing through gripping a cylinder's knob
- hand-eye coordination
- building the child's judgment
With this fine-motor exercise the child can practice using the pincer grip, which indirectly prepares them for writing, and develop hand-eye coordination while having fun putting the 9 movable grip knobs back in place.
The child is never set up to fail. They thus gain confidence, curiosity and independence.
It lets the child practice the pincer grip with the thumb, index and middle finger. By holding the grip knobs, they indirectly prepare for writing.
They learn to strengthen their hand and fingers and to acquire the necessary movements.
