Samantha, from Canada and living in Dubai, sent in this great fine motor pulley scoop idea. Let’s take a look at it…

What did you do?

We made a super fun fine motor activity to grow our little hand muscles.
I put in different scoops and funnels and magnifying glasses to let them explore all aspects of the activity.
To guide them, demonstrate how to twist the tube with 2 hands forwards and backwards slowly.

I liked how they felt like they were doing construction. They loved making the bucket go up and down and making the bucket spin all around the tube. It kept them busy for a long time!

Tell the Housebound With Kids community a bit about yourself…

I’m Sam from Canada. I teach and live in Dubai at a British pre school. I have no children myself, but my passion is definitely in teaching the little ones.
