Now that we are into coat season it is important to help teach your child to zipper their coat independently. Check out these two articles with tips for teaching zipper skills.
How to Teach a Child to Zipper Their Coat:
The simple act of zippering a coat requires: bilateral coordination, finger isolation, open thumb web space, separation of the two sides of the hand (on BOTH hands), motor planning, pinch strength, eye-hand coordination, pincer grasp, and tripod grasp (most often of the non-dominant hand). Whew! It’s no wonder that teaching kids how to zipper can be such a complicated orchestration of fine motor skills! -Colleen Beck OT
