To help to support gross and fine motor development, the children take part in daily Dough Disco and Squiggle While You Wiggle sessions. During Dough Disco, each child is given a piece of playdough and they then carry out a number of exercises with their fingers. There are lots of videos on YouTube for the children to follow, you could even try some out at home. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnpILg6I6Nk During Squiggle While You Wiggle, each child is given a pair of flappers (2 pieces of material) and the then carry out a sequence of moves that help to strengthen their arm and shoulder muscles and is the beginning of their journey in to becoming a writer.
