Fine Motor Skills Video: What you Need to Know

[Guest guest]

The Fine Motor Skills debate needs some basic facts clearly stated:

·

There are no muscles in your fingers.

·

The control center for the hand is in the lower

arm.

·

When you move your fingers, there is a muscle

ripple effect all the way up the arm to the back of your neck.

·

Learning to release the grip requires muscle co-ordination

in the lower arm.

·

Picking up pins

is not the place to start developing fine motor skills.

·

There are a set of skills prior to fine motor

skills that must be developed first.

·

Any keyboard is the best place to do this.

·

Fingerpainting is also usefull.
