How does this mat encourage your child’s psychomotor development?

It gives children sensory redundancy to boost their proprioception. Proprioception is necessary to meet major psychomotor development milestones. This mat allows children to safely do these movements.This mat helps your child develop their psychomotor skills. This product has been approved by a physiotherapist.

Main stages of dynamic balance development

Children under the age of 4 learn how to control their body and move in any given direction by slowly waddling around. At 4 years old, children can walk, putting one foot in front of the other, on a path measuring at least a foot and a half wide. At age 6, children can walk heel to toe on a beam that is at least as wide as their feet.

Psychomotor development:

Children’s psychomotor development depends on a combination of genetics, motor skills, and maturity. A product can impact a child’s psychomotor development if it supports their motor skills. There are several aspects to motor skills: the body map, dynamic coordination, balance, hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, and time and spatial awareness.

Body schema

The body map refers to a child’s perception of their body, which allows them to refine their movements and develop self-awareness. The more a child moves, the more they refine their body map, and the more accurately they’re able to move.

Hand-eye coordination

Hand-eye coordination includes actions required for aiming with part or all of your body: Youngsters develop this skill by mapping a path and then using their hands and feet to aim large objects at large targets. As their coordination develops, the objects and targets get smaller and smaller until they have excellent finger isolation: playing the piano, threading beads on a string, writing.

Time and spatial awareness

Time and space awareness includes everything that involves a child’s perception of themselves in time (before/after, rhythmic activity, day/night, seasons, etc.) and space (in front/behind, on/under, right/left, etc.)
