Grab that Monster Fine Motor Activity Set

Why We Love the Grab that Monster Fine Motor Activity Set

The Grab that Monster Fine Motor Activity Set turns hand strengthening and pre-writing practice into an exciting game. Using the two different monster grabbers — one hard-to-close (to strengthen the tripod grasp needed for pencil control) and one hard-to-open (to build overall hand and finger muscle tone) — children practise the movements they’ll use for writing, dressing, and everyday tasks. As they pick up and sort the colourful monster counters by colour, type, or attributes, they’re building dexterity, bilateral coordination, and visual-motor skills in a playful, low-pressure way.

Ways to Use the Grab that Monster Fine Motor Activity Set

• Fine Motor Skills: Use the monster grabbers to pinch, grasp, and release counters, strengthening fingers and improving pencil control.

• Sorting & Matching: Sort the monster counters by colour, type, or features to develop visual discrimination and early maths skills.

• Bilateral Coordination: Hold the sorting cup steady with one hand while using the grabber with the other.

• Classroom Centres: Create a fine motor station to support hand skills and strengthen small muscles before handwriting tasks.

• Therapy Play: A motivating tool for OTs to work on hand strength, grasp development, and motor planning.
