Tearing paper is such a great way to strengthen the muscles in children's hands. These days, I am doing a lot of fine motor skills activities with my daughter and she loves to tear paper. It is difficult to use the thumb and forefingers in opposing directions but with practice, they learn it. Once they master this skill, you can introduce collage like the one my son and I did together.
