Just add yarn! These Take-Home Weather Lacing Cards
are a fun and effective way to build hand strength, hand-eye coordination, and
manual dexterity. Children use the large plastic needle to weave yarn through
the punched holes. The shapes are all weather related, building early science
terms as you handle clouds, rainbows, suns, snowflakes and blowing leaves!
Being a take-home version, these are made of cardstock that a classroom
student can keep at home. We do offer a pack of assorted yarn pieces
sold separately. Lacing is a good
pre-handwriting skill to practice! ~Sara
