The Family Hour Activity Time

Play a Finch-inspired Fine Motor Game

What you need:

• Toy bugs and insects (available from cheap $2 shops)

• Chopsticks or tweezers for each player

• An empty egg carton for each player

  —Scatter the toy bugs and insects over the floor or a flat surface. Each player acts as a mother or father finch by using the chopsticks (finch’s beak) to pick up as many insects as possible and place them into their egg carton for their babies.
  ● When all the insects have been collected, line them up to see who has collected the most.
  ● The player with the most insects wins.
