Fine Motor skills- The first 2000 days
Fine motor skills are very important. This allows your baby to practice her pre writing skills. It is very important that your purchase toys that are developmentally appropriate, toys that your baby can interact with and has different parts for movement. You should also provide house hold items. Play dough is a wonderful material also. You should also provide opportunities for your baby to develop her eye muscles, eye hand coordination give your baby things to string. Purchase a large shoe string and provide items with holes. You will need to show your baby the procedure once then leave the items where your baby have access to it. She will get it when she wants to and you will observe her doing the activity. Babies do not like to be interrupted ,this will break the child's focus and an opportunity to discover will be lost.
