Pencil Pressure Exercise

In this activity, children practice hand and finger control by tracing the image of dirt and messy hair with a whiteboard marker over a permanent marker. Children need to press the marker and tissue hard enough to clean the faces. This exercise helps children tighten their grip and increase the pencil pressure when writing. Let’s get started.
