Fine Motor Skills: Squeeze Blaster Target or Lite Brite?

[toby]

I am looking for some "fun things" that will help my resistant 4.5 year old with his fine motor skills (no go with therapy putty or creative uses of tongs and clothes pins).

Does anyone have this Squeeze Blaster Target?

Also, how difficult are the Lite Brite pegs to put in and pull out?

Thanks!

Lite Brite was good for us - I'm not sure how to describe the pegs. It is more precision than strength.

Legos helped here as well. DS1 started them about that age after they gave him some as a prize in the ER. I noticed a huge improvement in handwriting after a couple months of building things with them.
