Kindergarten has been busy working on Finger Gymnastics. You may ask what is Finger Gymnastics? Before Kindergarteners use a pencil they develop strength in their pincer grasp with various fine motor activities. This helps to develop a good and strong grip on the pencil for now and in the future. Some of the Finger Gymnastics activities include playing with play dough, using tweezers to pick up various small objects, screwing a nut onto a bolt, hole punching, and lacing. The favorite was transferring water from one cup to another using an eyedropper. As they transferred the blue dyed water into the other cup with a drop of yellow food coloring it turned green! Was it magic?
