Clothespins for finger strengthening

Everyone know the common use of clothespins- to hang out clothes.  But did you know that clothespins can be used to help with finger strengthening and coordination?  Teachers- put each of your kids names on a clothespin.  Have them put their clothespin on a container when they come to circle, or if they are called for a job. Parents can use clothespins with chores written on them and have the kids pick one from a container and then put it on the rim when the chore is completed.  Or, put fun activities on the clothespins and allow the kids to pick one when they earn it and then put it on the rim.
