It is vital for children to develop gross motor skills and fine motor skills to control their bodies. Gross motor skills which have to do with the large muscles of the body are developed through activities like outdoor play, jumping, running, climbing, playing on bicycles, playing with toy cars, hoops and dance movement sessions. Fine Motor Skills which have to do with the fine muscles of the body are developed through activities such as exploring a wide range of puzzles, play dough, threading the beads, buttoning boards, lacing activities and basically handling and picking up small objects.
