OT Activity of the Day:
Stuff the Turkey
Target Age Range: 2 and up
This may have been the best Pinterest find in a while! I also shop at Whole Foods, and I was too lazy to paint the finished product. It took me longer than I would like to admit to make this little guy ha. In any case, I used all my paper bags and put together this "cooked" turkey. All it needs now is the stuffing!
So today I have some older kiddos (Pre-K through 2nd) so I am using my pom poms, dice, and tongs to facilitate fine motor manipulation, hand strength and bilateral coordination. Tomorrow I have some younger kiddos (2-4 years old) and we may just rip paper, then ball it up and put it in. This will work on bilateral coordination and fine motor manipulation as well. Either way, we get to stuff the turkey!
Enjoy!
