Our Toddlers at Ashton Vistacana are clipping, pinching, and sorting their way through one of the best fine motor activities there is. Every time a little hand squeezes open a clothespin and clips it onto a board, they’re strengthening the small muscles that support handwriting, coordination, and focus.
