Why it helps
This activity works on grasp and manual dexterity/in-hand manipulation by stringing small objects on spaghetti.
Using a paper cup, a styrofoam plate, or a piece of play dough, instruct the child to place the spaghetti vertically.
Provide the child with cheerios or beads and have him string the small objects onto the spaghetti.
If using different color beads or cheerios, you can have the child either sort the items into the different color groups or work on patterns (e.g. yellow-red-yellow-red...)
