Pixie LOVES pegging activities. These activities are relatively easy and inexpensive to make. Pegging activities for great for building finger strength, pincer grip and fine motor skills. Here are Simple DIY Pegging activities.
Materials required:
Bamboo Pegs
Dot Paints
This activity is quick and easy to make. I painted the botton half of each peg (2 pegs per colour) for use with matching coloured pompoms.
Materials required:
Bamboo Pegs
(Coloured paper will also work)
Circle Paper Punch
Punch out equal number of circles and squares. One set (one square and one circle) per colour.
Glue a square on each peg.
Number the back of each peg and corresponding circle. This can double as a number recognition/sequencing activity.
Using the nail varnish, paint over each number on the pegs. This will prevent the numbers from rubbing off.
I have these two activities stored in little plastic baskets which are easy for Pixie to manage.
