This fun activity works your child’s gradation of force for building blocks, spatial reasoning to avoid knocking them down when tracing, fine motor and visual motor integration, as well as, visual perceptual skills to trace. Have them talk about the blocks, shapes, shadows, and sequence the steps for language development.

Facilitation of pincer grasp and release for block sorting helps to develop fine motor skills and motor planning to navigate placement into the appropriate place. Work in descriptions of the blocks and their characteristics for language development and visual-perceptual skills.

Providing children with the language to be able to be aware of and express their emotions is an essential first step before using coping strategies to self-regulate. Talk with your children over this fun craft activity to have a visual representation of all the feelings they can experience.

It is vital that our digestive system function properly. However, there are many conditions which affect the digestive system and can cause problems. Our stomach muscles move and process the food we eat. When this movement doesn’t function appropriately, it prevents your stomach from removing the contents of it and emptying, which is a condition called gastroparesis.
