OT Activity of the Day:
Robots!
Target Age Range: 3 and up
Depending on the age of your child, your child can decorate an already put together robot or help assemble the robot! At Camp Splish Splosh we built two robots collaboratively as a group! Our rule was that nothing could be moved once put together and that everyone's opinion was important. With a preview of expectations for all, the children were able to build and decorate peacefully!
To make our robots we used old Amazon boxes (because who doesn't have several laying around), tin foil, dowel rods, Styrofoam balls, markers, tape, and glue. Not only did this craft focus on collaborative problem solving, but the kids were able to work on their fine motor development as well!
Enjoy!
