Purpose: This is a wonderful craft activity for kids! This guitar provides unique sounds with
each stroke. Playing the guitar uses fine
motor skills such as cutting, using tape, and placing the rubber bands. By
decreasing the instructions to only a few steps at a time, any child can build their
attention to activities while working on other skills. Many children will find this kids craft enjoyable! Cutting the circle out of the tissue box for the paper towel roll
can be difficult and should be done by the parent/therapist.
