These tasks include opening jars or squeezing toothpaste. This activity requires using both hands together, which is called bilateral coordination. One hand holds the bottle firmly steady (proximal stability). The other hand twists the cap using rotation and strength. Placing the small button inside works on a precise pincer grip. This grip is needed to manage clothing fasteners like zippers and buttons. This multi-step process also builds important motor planning and sequencing skills.
