Motor Development in Children
Motor development refers to the development of general body control, fine motor skills and large muscle movements. There are three stages of motor development in children as given below infancy or infancy hood, early childhood & later childhood.
It is of two types:
1. Gross motor development involves the development of large muscles in the child‘s body such as sitting, walking, running etc.
2. Fine motor development involves the dthe evelopment of small muscles of the body, especially during the small movements of the fingers and hands eg. Holding of a javelin, discus and pole, catching a cricket ball etc.

Factors Affecting Motor Development
  • Nutrition: – Nutritious food promotes good motor development. Sensory-motor development is dependent upon nutrition that the child gets to a great extent. Children get stronger and development is good if they get nutritious food.
  • Immunization: – If mother and child both are immunized at a proper time it leads to good sensory motor development.
  • Environment: – Encouragement, love and security help the child to take the risk to explore fearlessly and to know more about the environment which leads to a better sensory development.
