This fun, hands on resource is perfect to help develop bilateral coordination (an important foundational fine motor skill), visual tracking, as well as encouraging mathematical thinking and spatial awareness. Featuring 32 different cards, each one:

• contains a structure of cups of varying degree of complexity for children to build and copy
• promotes hands-on learning in a multi-sensory way
• promotes visual tracking and spatial awareness as children recreate models, working out where each cup goes

After building the cup structure, children are invited to knock it down with a bean bag and choose another card to ‘build and knock’. Suitable for both EYLF and F-1, include in your fine motor rotations, as a whole class game or for children who aren’t typically motivated by ‘sit down’ activities. This is great to help develop:

• fine motor skills, particularly Bilateral Coordination (the ability to coordinate and use both sides of the body at the same time) – a skill children use when cutting with scissors or when throwing and catching a ball
• visual tracking, a key skill for learning to read and write

With detailed ‘how to use’ instructions, print 2 to a page for an engaging, hands-on way to develop and refine a variety of skills.
