The children work with play dough to make shapes, cut out letters, form letters and spell words. These activities reinforce kindergarten concepts and build fine motor skills. Games and Table Toys - A variety of board games, Colorforms, and toys that promote cooperation, fine motor growth and oral language.
Puzzles are wonderful tools to promote spatial sense, cooperative learning and fine motor skills.
We have floor puzzles and board puzzles for the children to work with. Many of the puzzles also reinforce skills we practice in class. For example, we have a piggy bank puzzle that helps us learn the faces on our coins. All rights reserved.
