Difficulty with finger isolation – the fingers tend to move as a unit, rather than moving individually. & -Activities that isolate the index finger – pointing, pushing buttons, finger painting with one finger. – "Flicking" games – one finger is used to flick an object at a target. -Pressing keys on a piano or keyboard with hands in set position (no hunt and peck). -Holding a small toy or coin in the ring and little fingers while writing to keep them tucked. -Coloring using broken crayons – may incorporate holding a small toy in the ring and little fingers. \tn

Poorly integrated palmar reflex – the fingers show a tendency to curl when the palm is pressed. & -Squeezing and opening the hands repeatedly, either with hands empty or using a small stress ball. -Play activities that require strong, forceful grasp, such as playing on monkey bars or swinging on a trapeze bar. -Forceful hand based heavy work, such as putty exercises with resistive putty, squeezing cylindrical glue bottles, squeezing a hand exerciser. -Picking up small items with tweezers or connected chopsticks. \tn

\SetRowColor{white}
Inadequate prehension patterns – the fingers do not form a quality or forceful tip or palmar pinch. Cause may be poor thumb stability, low finger strength, motor learning or motor control problems. & -Putty exercises focusing on tip and palmar pinch -Activities that require pinch – placing clothespins, placing small pegs, popping bubble wrap. -Coloring using broken crayons – the size of the crayons forces the fingers to form a tripod grasp to hold the crayons. Hand over hand assistance may be required at first to provide input for appropriate finger position and force of grasp on the crayon. \tn
