Nine everyday hand skills in pictures — crayons, scissors, buttons, zippers, beads, blocks, puzzles, tongs and pinching.

Suggested use: Pick one or two pictures a day. Two or three minutes at a time is enough.

Preview

Fine motor skills are all the little hand movements children use every day — not just writing and coloring. Getting dressed, playing and helping in the kitchen build the very same muscles.

For the adult
  • Every skill on this page uses the same hand muscles as writing.
  • Helping in the kitchen with tongs, and getting dressed, both count as practice.
  • Play dough, stickers and posting coins into a slot are easy extras.
  • Stop before frustration starts — short and happy beats long and hard.
