Invite other caregivers such as grandparents to play fine motor games with your child that require coordination of fingers, movements and actions. Provide paper and blunt-tipped scissors for your child to practise cutting and tearing.
Using simple objects provide infants with an opportunity to focus on the object, give the adult eye contact, and gesture or speak to the adult to ask for assistance in working with the object.
Tactile sensorial activities and practical life activities should be considered in the environment for fine motor development.
Children’s course of development is significantly facilitated by appropriate, affective relationships with consistent caregivers as they relate to children through play.
Child development experts recommend limiting children’s daily screen time as screen time limits can help lower the risks of screen time for the child, which include physical, developmental and safety risks, among others.
