The focus of this activity is fine motor skills. By using the tweezers to pluck the eyeballs out of the gak and transfer it to the jar, it helps to strengthen little hands and fine tune the use of the pincer grasp. It's a great activity for Halloween time too!
What you'll need:
-Gak (get the recipe here: http://bfandaf.blogspot.com/2014/08/gak.html)
-Googly eyes
-tweezers
-a small jar or bowl
If you want to increase the difficulty a bit, use playdough instead of gak. Since the playdough is more firm, it's a little more tricky to pluck the eyeballs from it.
