On a chalk board write the letters of the alphabet with chalk.
Add water to the container and place it next to the chalk board.
Ask the child to dip the paint brush in the water and trace the letters of the alphabet. Alternatively, you can use a sponge to enhance the tactile and grasp skills.
For grading, draw shapes on the chalk board instead of the letters of the alphabet.
Draw 2″ circles on the cardboard sheets. Cut them out, or let the child cut them if the cardboard is not too thick.
Instruct the child to cut 4 narrow slots on each circle, about 1/2″ deep, leaving about 1″ space between slots. Slots need to be as wide as the cardboard is.
Provide the child with different size paper rolls (i.e. toilet paper rolls, paper towels rolls, etc.).
Note: You can use one size roll and cut it into different sizes.
Instruct the child to cut 4 narrow slots on each edge of the roll, leaving about 1″ space between slots. Slots need to be as wide as the cardboard is.
Have the child color the paper rolls.
Let the child connect between the rolls to build structures and sculptures.
