In the first of a new photocopiable series for parents and practitioners, Jennie Lindon shows how young children's fine motor abilities develop from birth to three years
In order to read this feature you will use a wide range of fine motor skills - the physical skills needed for hand-eye co-ordination and using your fingers - probably without thinking much about them at all. You will look at and pick up the magazine or photocopy of the feature. Your eyes will scan the page, back and forth, and perhaps you will use a pen to mark up a section that particularly catches your attention. If you keep the feature, you will tear out the pages from the magazine and perhaps slip them or the photocopy into a transparent envelope for a ring binder.
