Fine Motor Skills

This virtual group will meet every Tuesday starting 9/22 through 11/17, from 3:30pm to 4:15pm.

Looking for a program to help your preschooler develop fine motor skills in preparation for Kindergarten? This 8-week program will help children build a foundation for writing! The children will be introduced to a variety of fun-filled sensory and motor activities that will help develop pre-Kindergarten readiness skills. We will include activities to develop: endurance and postural control, bilateral hand skills, midline crossing and hand dominance skills, functional grasp patterns for using tools, eye-hand coordination and understanding of directional concepts, ability to recognize similarities/differences in symbols and letter forms.

This 8-week long session is open to kids with and without autism, and they are likely most appropriate for kids ages 3-5, but if you feel this would be a great fit for someone in your family outside of this age range, please email us at [email protected].
