 | This activity requires careful threading, so it takes controlled finger movements. That's the kind of control your child will need for being able to use a pencil for writing or a crayon for drawing You're also giving your child that good feeling of being able to control his or her hands and fingers -- something important for developing control at angry times so your child won't hit or hurt someone.
