Spaghetti Threading

The Spaghetti Threading Starter Set is an innovative handwriting, fine motor and sensory learning resource designed to help children develop pencil control, writing grip and hand-eye coordination through engaging hands-on activities.

Ideal for early years, primary schools and post-primary settings, this versatile set combines therapeutic movement with creative drawing and writing activities.

The set provides a fun way for younger children to develop arm strength, muscle control, sensory awareness and hand-eye coordination, while older children can use it as a creative and calming activity. It encourages learners to experiment with movement, lines and shapes while developing greater control of their hands and arms.

To use the activity, children thread a colourful string through the pen holder and then use the pen to draw or write on the supplied hook-and-loop board. Pictures can also be created using the strings directly with the hands, providing an alternative tactile and creative experience. When children want to start again, the strings can simply be unhooked and reused.

The set includes 20 colourful strings in 5 different colours and lengths, providing plenty of opportunities for varied activities and creative exploration. Supplied with a tablet, pen holder, easel, coloured felt, storage container and task cards, it provides a complete resource for individual or small-group activities.
