Pre K Family Focus: Boost Fine Motor Skills with Makedo

These simple screen-free activities prove that you don’t need high-tech toys to keep your toddler engaged and learning. With some cardboard and a bit of Makedo magic, you can turn a rainy afternoon into a masterclass in coordination and creativity. Whether you're counting dots or building patterns, you're making memories and reaching milestones, one Scru at a time.

Check out some of our favourite activities for your next family maker time.

Counting with Number Lines

Move over number trains! Check out these Makedo number lines by @playtime_laughandlearn. Your toddler can practice key math skills in action by recognising numbers, counting, and engaging in fine-motor activities with Makedo tools and Scrus!

Fine Motor Skills Cotton Tip Lamb

Be inspired by @spirefamilylife and help your little one explore problem-solving, fine motor strength, and hand-eye coordination! Print out a picture, poke holes with the Makedo Scru-Driver, and place cotton tips to practice those fine motor skills.

Playing with Patterns

More math fun from @playtime_laughandlearn, where their family focused on how to make repeating patterns, all while practising important dexterity skills for early childhood development.

Makedo Dot to Dot 

We just love how @playful.childhood incorporates Makedo with a dot-to-dot activity! Using the dot-to-dot as a template, little hands can poke holes in a cardboard box, then insert a Screw into each hole. Our colourful Scru dots add colour, and parents can also write numbers so little ones can connect them to the string, dot-to-dot style!

Ready to start building?

Pass the Makedo tools and let your littles get started. They’ll be proud of what they made, and you’ll know that they’re building valuable skills for the future! 

Happy building!
