- Have your child build letters using playdoh. Using playdoh your child will learn how to form letters out of big lines, little lines, small curves or big curves. Provide your child with a large printed letter and the playdoh letter can be formed on top.
- Have your child write letters using their finger in sand. Your child will find it fun and you can do it alongside your child.

- Dot to dot worksheets or maze puzzles are another great way to improve the fine motor skills.
