Importance of Hand-eye Coordination:

Hand-eye coordination is one of the most important skills for functioning in your daily life. The most simple task can get difficult to do if we have no hand-eye coordination. Good hand-eye coordination helps children in different areas of life, such as sports, handwriting, reading, play and life skills.

Activities for improving hand-eye coordination in your child:

- Hitting a suspended ball with a racket - Throwing a ball and catching it - Playing with toys that make a sound - Drawing and colouring - Lacing beads - Doing puzzles - Gardening: it involves shovelling, digging, burying and watering - Playing tossing the balloon in the air - Playing lego - Cutting and gluing activities
