Sorting and fine motor skills

Brett was working on sorting skills...he got out his beads and first sorted by shape, then by color. He had great fun...he said he built a city...

Fine motor skills...we always try to work on these. He practices cutting, tracing lines, threading beads onto laces, etc...all very good at strengthening his little wrist muscles for his writing.
This is a cool book he's working in...you choose a picture, peel away parts of it to reveal a sticky surface, then you choose your colors strips from the back, snip them into tiny pieces (there's the fine motor part) then you take the snips and put them on the sticky to fill it in. He really likes them!
