Why introduce Fall to preschoolers?

Fall is a popular preschool theme! I love reading books about the changes in the seasons and animals like squirrels that are fun to explore during the Fall. Kids are fascinated by the colors changing and acorns dropping. I love reading funny books and informative books about Fall as we introduce the theme and then doing simple activities.

Why are stickers good for building fine motor skills?

Peeling off stickers helps kids strengthen the small muscles in their hands and fingers, especially the pincer grip (thumb and index finger), which is really important for things like holding a pencil.
Positioning and placing stickers onto their monster helps kids with hand-eye coordination as they carefully place the stickers where they want.
Manipulating stickers in general also boosts bilateral coordination (Bilateral coordination is when both sides of the body work together to do something.) Kids will often use one hand to hold the sticker sheet while the other peels and places the stickers.
