Paper Roll Tunnel Guide
Purpose
This activity helps your preschooler develop the coordination needed for daily tasks. By using a stick to guide a ball through a path, they are learning how to control their hand movements with precision. It also encourages them to use both hands together. One hand holds the board and one hand moves the stick. This is great for building the foundation for writing and cutting.
Activity Steps
Steps:
- Tape four paper rolls onto a large piece of cardboard to create tunnels.
- Place the board on a flat table or the floor.
- Give your child a ping pong ball and a craft stick.
- Ask them to push the ball through each tunnel using the stick.
- They should hold the board steady with their helper hand.
Safety Tip:
Constant adult supervision is required. Ping pong balls can be a choking hazard for young children. Ensure all materials are used as intended.
