Pom Pom Drop

I created this work a few years ago when Ava was a toddler and decided to put it together again for Lucy. It's a great grasping work, it allows for repetitiveness of putting in and dumping back out and open and close. (every toddler loves to do that!)

I took an empty parmesan bottle but you could use any bottle/container that allows the child to open and close and to see the objects being put in and taken out. I used an assortment of pom poms and put them in a basket. Place the bottle and basket of pom poms on a tray and there you have it.

It's important that while demonstrating you show your child the pincer grasp before picking up the pom poms. Slowly take each one and place it in the bottle. Once all the pom poms are in the bottle take both hands and gently dump them back into the basket. Enjoy!!
