Dough Stamps
5 Stamps/ set
Great kit addition to any kit and here's why...
Using wooden stamps stretch the thumb away from the palm and the fingers have to curl around to grasp the other side of the stamp. It requires active work from all the finger muscles.Stamping in a specific place incorporates eye hand motor coordination demands.
Creating a design or pattern with stamps activates creativity and visual perceptual reasoning.The big space between the thumb and fingers is called the “Web Space” and is very important for controlling the pencil. When holding the stamp correctly, the muscles that create the web space get stronger.This is the reason I chose a wider knob to make the stamps on.
If I were to have chosen a smaller, more narrow surface for their hand, the activation of the important muscles to strengthen would have been neglected.With the older child (Kindergarten and beyond) stamping can be incorporated into academic work, art projects and be used as a tool to develop pattern sequencing and spatial skills.
Each item I create or add to my kits are done with purpose!
