Introduction:
Throwing the bean bags into the can and shaking it, among other activities, will stimulate visual-motor coordination, which involves activities with controlled movements that require a lot of precision, which will undoubtedly help improve body coordination, developing gross and fine motor skills.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Trace on the butcher paper 1 rectangle and 1 circle, measuring with the can to cover it completely and cut out.
Draw two lines along the 22x3-inch butcher paper with a triangle or square designs and cut them out.
Color and cut out the picture of the Indians or the picture you decide to use.
Cut the fabric forming each one of them into: 1 square, 1 triangle, 1 circle.
Cover the bottom of the can with the circle of butcher paper, taping them together.
Line the can with the butcher paper by sticking it with adhesive tape (do not cover the plastic lid)
Glue the 2 strips with designs of butcher paper on the top and bottom of the can and the drawings in the center.

Adhesive tape can be used to line the entire can, this way it will be more resistant and children can better enjoy their toy.
