DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe skills children acquire in fine motor activities such as cutting simple shapes go beyond just the production of a craft; although that, too, has its rewards. The ability to grasp and manipulate transfers to future writing skills, the dedication to the task involved becomes the ability to concentrate and the completion of a satisfying project builds pride, self-esteem and confidence.
