Christmas Fine Motor Math Activities are a fun and hands on way to strength fine motor skills, build spatial and visual discrimination, while practicing counting. These are perfect for morning work tubs, math centers, a holiday party or fine motor tubs in a kindergarten classroom. These STEM activities are sure to be a hit in your classroom! Included are a variety of fun themed activities that your students are sure to love. I have included affiliate links to all of the manipulates that I use as well. Pattern Blocks One of my favorite fine motor activities is Christmas Pattern Block Math Activities Your students will have a blast working with shapes to build different Christmas themed pictures and count how many of each shape is used. Included in the packet are a variety of options for the 10 pictures including tracing only, small task cards that will challenge your students and encourage visual and spacial discrimination, as well as an open ended blank build your picture with shapes option. This provides an amazing option to differentiate and allow them to see the different shapes that you can use to build a shape. Each student may come out with a different way to create the picture and compare and a great way to bring in math questioning. I have included a free sample of one of the versions of the reindeer and the ornament for you to try in your classroom at the end of the post. If you don't get have Pattern Blocks yet, I have included my affiliate link for those as well. Snap Cubes Another favorite fine motor activity that I love is Christmas Snap Cubes.

These are available in large to scale mats, you have even have the students build directly on the mats and count how many of each color or small easy to store task cards that are not to scale.
