Why it helps
This activity provides opportunities for fine motor skills, bilateral coordination, and problem-solving skills. Choking risk: googly eyes can be a choking hazard. Stay within arm's reach, and keep them away from children who still put things in their mouths.
This hatching egg activity provides the child with a fun chance to address fine motor skills and bilateral coordination.
Preparation:
Step 1: Draw a chick's face on an oval-shaped construction paper.
Step 2: Cut the oval-shaped brown construction paper into cracks & tape it together onto the chick's face.
Step 3: Have the child use both hands to pull off the brown eggshell from the baby chick.
