Sponge Squeeze

Materials You Will Need:: one large sponge, two large bowls, water, towel for clean-up

What To Do:: This fun activity develops strong hand muscles and fine motor skills. Place two large bowls on the floor or at a table. If you're working on the floor, you will want to place a towel or bath mat under each bowl. Fill one bowl halfway with water. Demonstrate how to submerge the sponge under the water; pick it up with two hands; move it to the empty bowl; and squeeze all the water into the empty bowl using two hands. Continue until all the water has been transferred. Invite your child to do the same.
