What are Visual Motor Skills?
They’re how your child’s brain connects what they see with how they move. Think: copying a shape, tracing letters, building with blocks, or playing catch!
Try These at Home:
- Dot-to-dot drawings
- Puzzles
- Cutting shapes
- Bowling with plastic bottles
- Stacking blocks by color or size
- Tracing stencils or letters
These fun activities are actually building your child’s brain-body connection! Follow our pediatric page for more tips!
