Why it helps
This activity provides opportunities for fine motor skills, bilateral coordination, and problem-solving skills. Choking risk: small pegs can be a choking hazard. Stay within arm's reach, and keep them away from children who still put things in their mouths.
This color-coding activity provides the child with a fun chance to address fine motor skills and bilateral coordination.
Preparation:
Step 1: Draw different code sheets, such as the one shown in the picture.
Step 2: Cut a portion of the pool noodle.
Step 3: Have insert the golf ball tees into the pool noodle to imitate the code.
*Be sure to provide necessary assistance as the bottom of the golf ball tee is pointed.
