Detailed explanation-1: -Pincer grasp definition The pincer grasp is the coordination of the index finger and thumb to hold an item. Each time you hold a pen or button your shirt, you’re using the pincer grasp. While it may seem like second nature to an adult, to a baby this is an important milestone in fine motor development.
