Why is early motor development vital to children and hence the use of these activity cards?
Teachers, pediatricians, and specialists know that early motor development is important to a child’s physical, emotional, academic, and overall success. The authors have summarized on one card entitled, “Movement Gets Us In Sync!” how vital it is to get kids to “MOVE” to sharpen their three essential skills:
- Sensory Skills: Include Tactile processing, Vestibular processing, and Proprioception.
- Perceptual Skills: Include Balance, Bilateral coordination, Directionality, Laterality, Midline crossing, Motor planning, and Spatial awareness.
- Visual Skills: Include Vision, Binocularity, and Visual tracking.
