Lacing


Hey there -
I just wanted to let you all know about a great pre-writing activity you can do with your kids. It's great for fine-motor skills, super easy and really fun! Just cut the front or back side of a cereal box and punch holes around the edge. Then have the kids lace yarn through the holes. I put tape on the ends of the yarn so that it was easier for the kids to grab and pull the yarn. Then I tied a knot at the end. Then at the very end we colored the box inside the lacing. The kids really enjoyed this and were very focused on their lacing - pretty cute! Now you can put all those empty cereal boxes to good use!
