Learning Resources Squeezy Tweezers

Squeezy Tweezers™ are ideal for fine motor tweezer activities in the classroom. Use these brightly coloured plastic tweezers to help children develop the essential fine motor skills they need to hold a pencil and write. The hand action when playing with Squeezy Tweezers is similar to that of holding and fastening a clothes peg, and this helps strengthen and refine a child’s pincer grasp.

These easy-to-use children’s plastic tweezers will encourage fine motor skills while preparing young hands and brains for writing.

• Squeezy Tweezers action is similar to that of fastening and unfastening a clothes peg.
• Using Squeezy Tweezers in fine motor skills activities strengthens a child’s pincer grasp which enables them to pick up small objects between the thumb and forefinger, which is an essential pre-handwriting skill.
• These colourful tools will develop hand-eye coordination which prepares the muscles and brain for writing. The brain coordinates movement and tactile sensations as a child is writing, which allows them to make changes as needed to keep muscle control.
• Unique tweezers have scoops on the end to allow for collection of small objects – once collected the object cannot be released until squeezed again which avoids frustration for young children still gaining control of their grasp.
• Use Squeezy Tweezers for a wide range of activities including sensory play activities.
• Set of 6 is ideal for a classroom setting and comes with a resealable storage bucket.
• Tweezers measure 12cm L.
