Boy, I'm on a roll!
Here's what we've done several times.
Need: Beads and string or ribbon. Anything thin enough that the kids can thread beads through.
Objective: have the kids string the beads through yarn, thicker thread, ribbon, etc.
They can make necklaces, bracelets, or just string things to practice using their fingers.
Time engaged: at least 30 minutes.
It's great!
Such a simple, inexpensive activity, but it works every time! For older kids, I'd suggest challenging them a bit---"can you make a pattern?" "Can you rotate from blue, green, yellow and red all throughout it?" etc.
