Monster Fine Motor Game

It’s MONSTER TIME!  Halloween is at the end of this month and monsters are a fun way to incorporate the theme into fine motor practice.  This monster fine motor game requires fine motor skills to fill in the adorable green monster and you can download it for FREE below.  Plus, you can watch a video of the game in action.

How to Play the Monster Fine Motor Game

1. Print each player a monster board.
2. Decide how you will fill the 20 circles on the monster: small balls of clay, tongs with pom-poms, dot markers, color with crayons, pennies or bingo chips.
3. Flip a coin.  If it lands on heads, fill in two circles.  If it lands on tails, fill in one circle.
4. The first player to fill in all 20 circles on the monster is the winner.

Ways to Modify the Monster Fine Motor Game

Want to finish in a hurry?  Use a die instead of flipping a coin.

Want to add in letter matching?  Write some letters in the circle.  The child can match letter beads and place them in the circles.

Want to make it easier?  Use larger manipulatives like colored plastic teddy bears or unifix cubes.
