The purpose of this activity is to promote fine motor and visual motor skills.

Preparation:

Step 1: Place pom poms on the table (or balance them on the bumpy top of a Lego brick for an increased challenge).
Step 2: Have your child use the tongs to pick up the pom poms and place them into the jar. Pretend the pom poms are drops of honey you are collecting in the honey jar.
Step 3: To increase the challenge, have your child:

Only pick up the yellow pompoms (to address sorting).
Fill the jar up to a line that you draw in.
