Beading Fun!

When I first started working within this field, I have learned a lot. What exercises target fine motor skills, what targets oral motor and so on. I remember most children had a hard time putting a string through a bead. We would get the big beads from Melissa & Doug and start with a shoe lace with 3 beads at a time. Once he/she masters the target, they will then move onto smaller beads with a thinner string.

I like to go over everything that the child has learned throughout the months to see of she has generalized them.

We were making bracelets for ourselves and of course one for her mommy too!
