How to Help Kids Build Fine Motor Skills

In order to use the small muscle groups in our hands, wrists, and fingers in a controlled way, we need fine motor skills. Having these skills is what gives us the ability to perform basic tasks, such as writing, eating, brushing our teeth, and getting dressed. Working on fine motor skills with kids helps to ensure that they will be capable of completing daily tasks, school work, and other activities successfully and independently.
