Flying Start @ Cornwall College’s Dough Disco!
Flying Start @ Cornwall College’s Toddlers have been developing their fine motor skills… disco style!
Recently the staff have been on ‘Finger Gym’ training and have put this into action with the toddlers…
Firstly the children make the play dough, then they start some finger gym activities…
These really help to develop fine motor control, skills and concentration levels!
This week the activity has been a ‘Dough Disco’! The children hold onto their playdough balls and listen to the music.. following their grown ups lead they use the play dough in time with the music!
Shaking it, rolling it, squeezing it, poking it, stretching it and using our hands whilst having a dance!
What a great way to develop hand strength which will help with writing control, cutlery control and lots of other fine motor activities.
