Torn Paper Collage



Supplies: Glue
Scraps of paper

This project is great for developing fine motor skills in Toddlers. Tearing paper is not easy for little ones. So, if they accidentally get too enthusiastic with their new found skill and manage to destroy a loved book or new magazine, remember, they are developing a very necessary skill. Coordinating the muscles in your fingers with messages sent from your brain is a wonderful thing!
You can buy another book.

This project can be done with old magazines, newspapers and/or paper rubbish (not soiled). The clean up can be fun as well. It can become a game of who collects the most or practice with a little broom and dust pan.
