Montessori Hand-Eye Coordination Activities

Hand-eye coordination allows children to catch a ball in motion or sketch the outlines of a sunrise. It's an essential skill that enables children to interact with their world effectively.

At 5 months old, a baby starts to move things from one hand to the other. At 1 year old, she learns to pick up smaller objects. At 2, she holds a pencil or spoon to eat. At 3, she starts to draw circles.
