DIY Piggy Bank Fine Motor Activity
19th Jan 2014
Make your own "piggy bank!" This DIY fine motor activity involves just two easy steps:
1. Cut a slit into the lid of any old food container (this is an almond can).
2. Use poker chips, play money, or real money to push into the bank.

Unlike store-bought piggy banks that have a wide slot for coins, the thin slit here provides resistance when you push items through for both hand strengthening and proprioceptive feedback.
