Emily, where are you? Mrs. Schmidt is standing at the stairs, looking desperately at the clock. Every morning it's the same: Emily can't finish getting dressed. Denis is just a typical boy. He never liked being indoors; he preferred to play outside in the yard or on the street with the other boys. Sometimes things got a bit rough, and there were small scuffles. Do such statements sound familiar to you? Does your child also struggle to learn everyday actions and only performs them with great effort and many mistakes? Through the example of Emily, who will accompany you like a common thread throughout this guide, the difficulties faced by children with motor development disorders are clearly illustrated. It describes how movements and skills can be learned. You will also learn how to support clumsy children.
