Mystery Yarn Foil Maze
Purpose
This activity helps your child develop finger isolation. This means moving just one finger at a time. By pressing the foil pan, your little one gets great sensory feedback. This heavy work builds the strength needed for holding a pencil later. Following the maze also helps with motor planning and focus. It is like a magic trick they build and solve themselves!
Activity Steps
Steps:
- Draw a winding maze on a piece of sturdy Cardboard.
- Trace the path with Glue and stick Yarn on top.
- Once dry, place the Cardboard inside an Aluminium Foil Pan.
- Turn the pan over so the Cardboard is underneath.
- Ask your child to press the foil using their pointer finger.
- Follow the raised yarn bumps to finish the maze!
Safety Tip:
Always supervise your child while they are using small materials like yarn and glue.
