These colorful tweezers are just the right size for little hands, and help fine motor skills, and sensory skills flourish. Each features ergonomic depressions to guide a proper pincer grasp grip. A perfect skill building resource for teachers, specialists and occupational therapists.

Grades: Kindergarten +.

Skill Development:

• Sensory- Great for students who are hypersensitive to textures; they can participate in tactile play using tweezers to hold and move objects.
• Fine Motor- Helps develop the pincer grasp and fine motor skills needed for daily living (buttoning, zipping, holding a toothbrush, and picking up finger foods). While students concentrate on using these tweezers, they are unaware of the inner circuitry going on. By working on grasping, picking up, and releasing with the tweezers, they are developing eye-hand coordination (visual motor integration). As this skill advances, students become more proficient with tasks like handwriting, drawing, and forming numbers.
