Describe a fine motor skill that a 3-year-old can do but a 1-year old would not yet be able to do.

What will be an ideal response?


Answers may vary. An example is that 3-year-olds gain more control over their hand movements and can start to draw a straight line and copy circles. They can even brush their teeth, although they will need help. One-year-olds are already showing hand preference and can hold a pencil and scribble, but their movement is not as controlled as it will be by the time they are 3 years old.
