Finger co-ordination

My dd is 2.5 and has what is described as 'subtle' brain injury, the most obvious difficulty she has is with her fine motor skills and finger co-ordination - particularly index fingers which don't always do what she wants them to! I just wondered if anyone had any experience of this? We have OT support and physio but still don't have any explanation as to how this might affect her long term or what prospects for improvement might be. Also if anyone can offer examples of exercises that have been helpful in improving finger co-ordination that would be great!

Glad you like it! Wish I could take credit for finding it, but our OT suggested it to us. She said that many of the home exercises she gives to families is on that site. She also has lots of good books, websites, and 'Fun for Kids' activities on her site under Resources. If you want to check it out, the site is:
