05.05.2026-Fine Motor Tuesday was full of busy hands and great concentration! đ⨠This week, all our activities were inspired by the story Superworm. The children enjoyed a range of hands-on experiences to develop their fine motor skills, including printing with different tools, threading, and exploring materials through play. We saw lots of careful gripping, pressing, twisting, and creating as the children strengthened their finger muscles while bringing parts of the story to life. Fantastic focus and creativity all aroundâwell done, everyone!

The children showed great enthusiasm as they moved between activities, building confidence while learning through play.
