Trixie Wooden hammer bench Babies will love tapping away at this hammer bench. It turns in any direction, so as they hit each animal in its colour-coordinated cut-out, it’ll pop out on the opposite side. They’ll find out how to colour-match, fine-tune their hand-eye coordination, stimulate their hearing and learn about cause and effect. Composition FSC® MDF – FSC® beech wood Age recommendation 18m Dimensions (LxWxH) 24x10x10 Fine mobility Fine motor skills are the ability of a child to manipulate small muscles correctly. It requires precise movements and correct hand-eye coordination. For young children of preschool, kindergarten and early school age, the development of fine motor skills is extremely important. Fine motor training games teach children how to use their fingers, specifically only the thumb and index finger, to perform certain actions. For example, corded fine motor games, where the child will practice finger, wrist and hand movements by trying to pass the cord through various objects, which will help them to master skills in their daily life. Developing fine motor skills in childhood helps lay the foundation for important future skills such as writing and self-care.
