Motor Skills

Motor skills are the skills that allow movement for tasks we do on a daily basis.  Fine motor skills are those that require a high degree of control and precision in the small muscles of the hand such as using a pencil.  Check out the sub sections on the right for activities to practise fine motor skills.

NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde have lots of information about best practice in developing motor skills;
