I love the ball with fabric. I have a 16 month old who loves balls, but not much else. Perfect for her. The tape on cookie sheets is a popular activity in our child care. We have dino and animal rescues, picking apples off a tree, and other themes that go along with our units of study. another home run video. Thanks for sharing Christina it’s always great on your channel.

Thank you for this video it gave me ideas to use with my 3 yr old. I tried the clothespins before but he couldn’t quite do those. We will have to try those again. I would love to see you do a video for the younger toddlers and babies! I have an 11 month old. I like to some things with him such as sticking Squigz onto a window and he enjoys pulling them off, he likes the magnetic tegu blocks, I’m trying to work on stacking blocks with him and we also have a Melissa and Doug tool box that he puts the wooden bolts in and out of the holes on the tool box. Not sure if those are all fine motor..anyways..as always I love seeing your videos!
Great ideas for babies. I recently purchased one of the little balls with holes for my little one, but never thought to fill it with fabric. I have tons of it around here as I’m always doing a little sewing project.
Hi Christina!!! I am new to your channel and had been LOVING IT!!! I am a first time mom, my baby is 10 months old and LOVE these kind of play/learn activities for him rather than piling him up with toys. I Would love to see more things for baby/toddler. Will be watching you all the way from Singapore <3
Thank you for this! When my son was little it was easy to just play and see him working on fine motor. He’s now 4 and we will be homeschooling him and I have a 9 month old. These are going to be handy this fall!
Yes, please, to the infant/toddler fine motor video. Many great ideas encompassed in this video. I love to have an “Open and Close” activity for my students that includes different containers and things that require various pincer grasp and whole hand motions to open and close (twist on/off lids, snap on/off lids, zippers, coin purse clasp/unclasping, etc.). Using tongs, tweezers, and spoons add an element to transfer jobs, too.:o)
Yes, baby and young toddler ideas. Also that play foam you showed at Target with the alphabet and number cards will be perfect for fine motor too. I picked up both sets.
Thanks! Fun activities! I am gonna buy the cheese dip game for my son. Target dollar spot has the play foam letter tracing set out now too for only $3!
