Overview

The child pours water from one pitcher to another, building on the dry pouring exercise. Water adds a new control challenge — it cannot be easily picked up if spilled. This exercise develops careful, deliberate movement and introduces responsibility for cleaning up spills.

Objectives

What the child gains from this work

Refine wrist control with liquid (no second chances). Develop awareness of speed and tilt angle. Practice a complete work cycle including cleanup. Build independence for self-serving at mealtimes. Strengthen concentration and patience.
