24+ | Toothpick Pick-Up

Instructions

Encourage some fine motor movement during snack time by having your child pick up objects with toothpicks - small fruit slices are perfect for this! Have them smell the fruit before tasting for a multisensory experience.

The Science

When your toddler is asked to pick up food using a new approach, new neural connections are shaped and supported. Continue to consider as many new ways as you can to approach your child's everyday experiences!
