For another Valentine Themed Fine Motor Activity, check out our Playdough Search and Count Activity; my 2 and 3 year old both loved digging through the play dough to find the hearts. It was a great activity to reinforce counting skills, too!
To make your own, you'll need to gather:
- ribbon
- two buttons
- needle
- thread
- foam hearts {I purchased a pack of glitter hearts from the Dollar Store}
Valentine's Day Fine Motor Activity
together {if I can do it, you can, too! That should give you hope!}
Using your needle and thread, sew a button on each end of your ribbon.
Next cut slits into your foam hearts... and the Valentine Themed Button Snake is ready to be put together!
Encourage your little one to slide the button through the slit in the foam heart.
Continue until they are all on the ribbon. You could even use this activity to sneak in counting, addition, and patterning!
