Things to do at Home

There are lots of things that you can do at home to support your child's development.

Below we highlight just a few ways in which this can be achieved. 

Fine Motor Activities 

In Reception, we spend lots of time getting children 'ready for writing'. Part of the Early Years curriculum focuses on developing children's fine-motor movements to encourage them to hold and control a pencil with accuracy. You can also support your child with this at home by completing the following activities:

cutting activities                        threading activities                               play-doh                                      construction with small parts 

                baking                                 hole punching paper                   popping bubble wrap                                   jigsaws
