Finger strengthening
Here's a cute project to work on finger strengthening. Give your child some cotton balls and tell him/her to pull them apart. Print a picture of a sheep and have him/her glue the cotton on to make the sheep "fluffy". Be sure to allow your child to open/close the Elmer's glue and squeeze the glue onto the paper. You will probably have to assist with guiding the glue since most children will simply squeeze the glue, making one big glob of glue.
