Lacing can strengthen fine motor skills and
improve hand-eye coordination in toddlers and
preschoolers.
They are great preschool learning toys to take
with you to keep your child busy in the car. They
don't require batteries, they don't use light,
and they are silent.
But toddler lacing isn't only a fun activity that
toddlers enjoy. Lacing helps toddlers learn
important cognitive and fine motor skills when
they play with them. By manipulating the string
in and out of the holes, the child strengthens
his or her dexterity, the pincer grasp, and
hand-eye coordination. Pincer grip in
particularly is vital for writing skills. As they
slowly work their way across the lacing card with
their ribbon, they learn to build patience and
perseverance. It is a lesson in patience because
it takes a lot of effort for little fingers to
grasp the tip of the ribbon. Sometimes this
activity can be frustrating for them when the
string falls out of the hole before they can grab
it with the other hand. Lacing also enables
toddlers to learn patterns and develop hand-eye
coordination through lacing and weaving. They are
one of the jumbo lacing beads for toddlers as
they aid in the development of various skills of
preschoolers and toddlers. Lacing cards usually
have pictures or letters or numbers printed on
them to help develop certain learning skills. The
child starts with one hole and laces the string
in and out of the card until all the holes are
filled. Lacing goes hand in hand with bead
stringing or weaving as they both aim in
developing two handed fine motor skills. I
normally let my 3-year old daughter practice
lacing by repeating patterns created on top of
the card or by playing with the ribbons so that
she can discover and explore different designs on
her own. There are a whole range of educational
and beautiful lacing toys for toddlers that you
can get (https//skoolzv.com/search?typeproductq
lacing) for your toddler to help them learn
while they play.
