Gak: Fine Motor and Sensory Fun



Gak is a great support for fine motor development. At the same time, it can fulfill a sensory need for many children. We often will set them out with scissors or just on its own to see what kids will do with it. Many will stay engrossed for hours at a time!

The recipe is super easy to make!
