One of Jonah's favorite things to do is practice using a hammer...preschool style. If we're working in the basement, he often asks for this activity to work alongside of us. This is a trick I learned while I was in college and kids love it!
Preschool Hammer Practice
Materials:
- Recycled piece of Styrofoam
- Golf Tees
- Child's Toy Hammer
Directions:
Using the golf tees as nails, let your child practice using a hammer. It's fun to let them choose their design, but for an added level of difficulty, have them make a pattern.
Target Skills:
- Pincer grasp (helps in handwriting)
- Hand-eye coordination
- Life skills
Where did you buy the toy hammer? This a great idea. Thank you.
Thanks! We used the toy hammer from our talking tool box. (affiliate link)
