Why it helps
Simple, fun, and festive activity to promote eye-hand coordination, pincer grasp, and strengthen the hand muscles.
For this activity, we used colorful paper straws and cut each straw into 1-inch pieces.
Ask the child to string the cut straw pieces onto a pipe cleaner.
Bend the top of the pipe cleaner to shape it like a candy cane.
