Cutting play dough // A fine motor activity

Kinsey is starting to hold her pens with a pincer grip, forming shaky letters, drawing stick figures and coloring inside the lines of coloring books. But her scissor use needs improvement. Here is a fun activity to help strengthen those fine motor skills and hand muscles: cutting play dough!

Easy peasy, fun and engaging! And pretty much guaranteed you already have the necessary implements at home. 

If you don't have play dough, here is my favorite recipe to make your own!

And if you want another fine motor activity, try cutting drinking straws.

Have fun!
