If you are looking for some fun activities for your little ones that will help them with their fine motor skills you should try pipe cleaners!
We love pipe cleaners! They come in so many bright colors, they even make sparkly ones! They are easy to use and most of the time you don’t need any glue to create something fun. All you need to do is twist them up. I love giving my kids pipe cleaners to play with and see what kinds of things they can create. There are so many great activities that work well for quiet play time and that helps them improve their fine motor skills.
Here are some great ideas to give your little ones to work on at home:
