Why is this exercise important?
- Hand-eye coordination: By following the lines with the pencil, children develop coordination between what they see and what they do with their hand.
- Fine motor skills: This exercise helps strengthen the small muscles of the hand, preparing the child for writing.
- Concentration and attention: Connecting the dots requires concentration and attention to follow the instructions and not get lost.
- Creativity: Although following a model, children can add their personal touch to the figures.
Tips for parents:
- Prepare the material: You need to print this sheet with the dots, colored pencils or markers, and a flat surface to work on.
- Create a relaxed environment: A quiet place without distractions will help the child concentrate.
- Encourage them to explore: After following the instructions, invite the child to create their own figures by connecting the dots freely.
- Celebrate their achievements: Recognize their effort and encourage them to keep practicing.
With this activity, children will have fun while learning and developing important skills for their development!
