This is the progression of pencil grasp.
Here is another fun way to work or play fine motor practice. Don't have a geo board, Don't panic, Just use thumb tacks or push pins in cardboard. Or for a more permanent game finishing nails in a piece of wood. Fine motor make up your own designs with rubber bands. Perceptual motor copy patterns or take pictures and print to remake patterns you developed.
