Fine Motor Skill Milestones.  In this episode, I discuss the fine motor skills that I consider to be “milestones” for kids in the ages of birth-three years.  I also present a research study on handwriting interventions with at-risk kindergarteners.

Bee to Hive Matching Game on Amazon

Cute game! I wouldn’t use with little ones that are still putting toys/items in their mouth.  . . the bees are still a little too small for my comfort with those kiddos!

But, it is a cute toy with good opportunities to work on fine motor, cognitive, social, and language skills.  The tongs work well, but can be a little difficult to pick up the bees for kiddos who are just learning how to use tongs.
