THE INFLUENCE OF SENSORY SYSTEMS IN MOTOR DEVELOPMENT TO THE PRESCHOOL CHILD

Abstract

In the first 7 years of life, the child learns to feel and to know their own body and to adapt effectively to the environment. He starts to differentiate the sounds then speak. Learn to use various instruments around them, from toys to things they use for self-service or school activities. All this generates sensory information and must integrate and process them to interact. Sensory integration functions naturally develop in a certain order, and each child follows the same basic sequences. Those who deviate from normal patterns of sensory development later present difficulties in different aspects of life. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of sensory integration therapy on improving the neuromotor capacity of children identified as having functional difficulties in the living environment.
