To help children develop fine motor skills and control hand movements
This paper flower arrangement activity helps children develop fine motor skills and control their hand movements. Children practice cutting circles and shapes and gently arranging flowers in a 2D paper vase to avoid tearing the paper, a hand control exercise. Let’s get started.
