Dinosaur Fine Motor Activities
Fine motor activities should be a staple session in your classroom or homeschool. You can practically prep and use these in a matter of minutes! If you have a hole puncher, you can get this done pretty quick but be patient and don’t overdo the ‘hole punching’ and injure your hand like I did. 😉

Dinosaur Fine Motor Pipe Cleaner Activity
These fine motor dinosaur cards are so much fun for pre-schoolers and kindergarten kids alike. You can use them with preschoolers when trying to practice colour matching or learning colours. Once you’ve printed the cards, you will need to hole punch the cards on the guide. Prepare the exact same pipe cleaner colours and cut them in half. I did this easily with the scissors. place them on the group table for the kids to use. Be sure to show them how to play, by demonstrating the activity first. Use a pipe cleaner to match and create ‘plates’ for one of the dinosaur cards. Have the kids follow your example and begin creating their dinosaurs themselves.
You could also totally turn this activity into a competitive group game by having two sets of the cards and have the kids compete to use pipe cleaners to match and create all their dinosaur plate cards.
