Egg Hunt

OT Activity of the Day:

Egg Hunt

Target Age Range: 3 and up

This is an activity that we do every year around this time.  We grab our plastic eggs and we fill them with activities!  This is something that you can do with one child or a group of children.  I have placed multistep directions in the egg, I have single step directions, fine motor tasks (find 3 beads in the putty), gross motor tasks, and I have sensory related tasks all hidden in the eggs.  

This activity focuses on BLC (bilateral coordination), MP (motor planning), gross motor skills, fine motor skills, and sensory motor skills.  All those difficult tasks, like writing, can be made more fun when there's an egg hunt involved;).

Enjoy!
