Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Fine motor skills are the ability to make movements using the small muscles in our hands and wrists. We rely on these skills to do key tasks in school, at work, and in everyday life. These small movements come so naturally to most people that we usually don’t think about them. But fine motor skills are complex.

Detailed explanation-2: -What are Fine Motor skills? Fine motor skills involve the use of the smaller muscle of the hands, commonly in activities like using pencils, scissors, construction with lego or duplo, doing up buttons and opening lunch boxes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Fine motor skills. Fine motor skills engage the small muscles in the hands and fingers so your child can: hold. grasp.
