Set of 12 tweezers, measuring 4" long, in 6 colors: blue, green, orange, purple, red, yellow. Includes plastic storage container.

Fine motor development
As students pick up objects with the tweezers, they are working on motor planning and eye-hand coordination (visual-motor integration) and refining the manual skills needed for writing, drawing and daily living.

Sensory Integration
Students who are hypersensitive to textures can participate in tactile play using tweezers to hold and move objects.

Self-help
Incorporate puppet-like conversations to enhance communication and social interactions. Gator (tweezers) can speak to or try to gobble up the other person, increasing direct contact with another.
