5-Must have toys which improve kids fine motor skills

What are fine motor skills ?

Fine motor skills means coordination between child’s small muscles like those in their hand wrist and finger with their eyes. If this hand eye coordination of the child is proper then they can do their day to day activities like writing, grabbing small objects, fastening clothes very easily and they feel more independent. Mainly fine motor skills are important in most school activities as well as in general their life also.

And weakness in fine motor skills can affect a child’s ability to eat, write legibly, use computer as well as turn pages in book and performing personal care task like bathing, dressing up, brushing etc etc. And due to this they are showing low confidence and low self-esteem.

We can develop their fine motor skills as early as like from 1 to 2 months old.
