Creating patterns, swirls, squiggles and zig-zags with buttons, children will have so much fun playing with this fine motor work station or learning centre activity.
Children enjoy hands-on activities and the bright colours and buttons are so engaging and motivating for children.
What you will need?
You will need coloured card, marker pen and assorted buttons.
If you do not have button, you may like to use gemstones, string, stones, pebbles, bottle tops, pompoms, shells or other small tokens for this activity.
Let’s Play
This activity can be utilised as a simple work station. It also promotes fine motor and coordination skills as children are picking up and placing glass gems onto the paper using the pincer grip action.
More ideas
This activity is great for sorting and classifying the colours or size of the buttons. Children can create patterns, rainbow colours or only used one colour for each line. The creativity and imagination is endless.
Turn the paper over to create your very own pictures, patterns, words, letters, numbers and shapes.
