She received one of those looms to make pot holders as a late Christmas gift. Suddenly, every break from schoolwork and hours in the evening, my daughter is making and weaving and mixing colors of the special strings. The entire time she is calm, even quiet occasionally (though usually she is singing).
During read aloud time, she works on her loom. She hears every word. She can narrate back. Her sisters were always the same way. They actually focused better on the reading if their hands were busy with some activity.
I love finding things that work, that are beneficial for my daughters.
