Materials
Crayons, Markers, Paper Cup, Stamps, Tempera Paint
Skills
Forearm Pronation, Forearm Supination, Grasp, Proprioception
Description
- Select four colors of paint to use.
- Put one color on the outside of four different cups so it can be seen & used for matching.
- Take the rest of your cups and put various colored dots on the inside bottom of the cup.
To play the game:
- All the cups are turned upside down so the colors inside cannot be seen.
- The child has to pick up the cup, turn it over (supination) to see what color is on the bottom of the cup, then find the matching cup with the paint on the outside and stack it on top using pronation to turn the cup over again.
This works well seated on a scooter board as well:
- Place one cup of each color at one end of the room and the rest of the cups at the other end and have the child bring one cup at a time over to stack it on the matching pile.
Replace paint with markers, crayons, or stamps.
