    All about those fine motor muscles this morning!

    The preschoolers had fun finger painting. They explored how to make different colors and experienced their senses by feeling the paint between their fingers and on the paper.

    We worked on tracing lines while practiced our crayon grip and strengthening the muscles in our fingers.

    Changing writing surfaces is a great way to develop fine motor muscles. Through out the week using our Handwriting Without Tears program the preschools write on paper, chalkboards, white dry erase boards, dry erase letter blocks, and the smartboard. Today the preschoolers worked on the letters we have learned so far this year on chalkboards.
