I have created a new activity for our Life Skills workstation. The Occupational Therapist wants Spike to work on some activities to strengthen his pencil grip... so I thought this peg activity would help with muscular co-ordination. The idea is to use the thumb and first finger to open the pegs and place them on the side of the basket. I thought I'd take it a step further and work on the alphabet and numbers 1-20 at the same time... so it's not just a case of putting the pegs up, they will have to think about what order the pegs go in!
Hopefully it will be useful. Obviously, Bubbles is way beyond this kind of thing, but she doesn't seem to mind joining in!
