Zip and Buttoning.
Learning practical life skills such as zipping and buttoning will not only help a child to improve their fine motor skills, but also allow them to be more independent in self-care and grooming.
We can practice practical life skills with simple tools at home.

Zipping
Materials
- Colourful zippers, glue and cardboard.

Buttoning
Materials
- Shirt with buttons

Used my kid’s old shirts for them to practice buttoning and unbuttoning activities. To make it easier for them to hold the shirt, I’ve inserted the wooden tray into the shirt. It helped them to hold the shirt and practice buttoning in a much easier and convenient way.
