OT Tools for Public Schools: Fine Motor and Sensory Exploration Ideas for January

Some fine motor/sensory exploration ideas for January:

Pine Cones and Elastic Bands

Rainbow Color Collage (try doing one color of the rainbow each day of the school week--ask families to contribute items in all of the colors)

Writing in the Dust (Fairy Dust, that is)

Thanks to http://theimaginationtree.com/ for all these great ideas!

Disclaimer

OT Tools for Public Schools is a blog for therapists, teachers, parents and anyone else who is interested in creative ideas for helping students "show what they know." It is not a replacement for private occupational therapy, special education, related services or general education in public/private settings. It is not a "medical" site, medical or allied health advice is not offered, and the reader is encouraged to use his/her knowledge of the individual child to decide whether or not an activity might be beneficial or potentially harmful to the child.
Since most of the activities mentioned are created from everyday, inexpensive materials, the reader is warned to consider the special needs of his/her student(s) and avoid using any materials which may potentially cause allergic reactions or other negative responses. Direct supervision of the child is required when materials are used.
Now that I've scared you to smithereens, go have fun with these ideas!
