Finger Gym

Placing corks in an egg carton using tri-grip tongs

 As a result of the aftermath of Covid-19 lockdowns in Melbourne, when children returned back to Kindergarten, I noticed that many of them lacked the fine motor skills that they would have otherwise developed. Therefore, in response, I implemented a program called "Finger Gym" that focused on fine motor development, hand-eye coordination, scissor skills and concentration. Finger Gym was also a valuable pathway towards developing finger muscles and pre-writing skills.

I love using tongs and recycled materials for finger gym!
