What To Avoid And Look Out For When Improving Motor Skills Using Play Therapy Training

By John Graham


The only way to find a solution to a problem is to find the factors and facts aiding correct functioning. It is so with when finding ways of improving motor skills in children, by finding the truth about the human body with play therapy training. This is due to mild and extreme failure to physically take tasks which involve the major and minor muscle movement.

These are categorized in fine and gross motor skills; Gross motor skills are the main movement of limbs like walking, crawling, jumping and running. Which is also the use of large muscle composition. While fine motor skills involve the movement of toes, fingers and wrist joints. There are many different reasons why some children are not the same level in the development chart with peers.

Utilize the environment best suitable and responsive and introduce pairs and slowly bigger sets of play time or group activities. The pressure may be felt as a parent, therapist or teacher. This would, in turn, put the child in pressure thereby affecting overall growth ability. Do not compare kids take each child as an individual although cases can be closely related to each child s personality is unique.

Boys compared to girls skills development, pay attention to what excites the child more and avoid any discouraging or unfavoured time of play otherwise find an alternative or incorporate other interests. Improving is the enhancement of already existing abilities rather than starting from zero. Using the child strength to counter for the weaknesses; choose the best time when the mood is good and not overdo training session at a time.

Moving toys are encouraged for the child to try and reach for them or crawl after increasing muscle growth. 9-12-month babies are the most inquisitive and active. This is increased by the new walking ability in exploring surroundings. Some children would start crawling at this age or sit upright with little or no support.

The different textures of materials in play objects felt in between fingers and toes and other skin areas would effectively stimulate eventual all motor skills. Genetics play some part in development, while inherited tendencies due to muscle tone of parents add to the development.

Outdoors exploring always stimulates the brain and in turn, has a great impact on child physical abilities. Climbing hills, nature walk, and water play. Hydro and equine has been proven to work even in the most extreme of physical disorders. Pony rides and splashes in warm or cold pools with other children present and toys just tickles every child s mind.

There are other causes to look out for, like not able to interact with other children in an open play setup, hesitant or poor handwriting. The child frequently stumbles or has somewhat clumsy behavior and eventually child shies away from trying any new games or other physically challenging activities, therefore individual sessions are more fruitful than groups.
