Abstract

Introduction: Children with motor development delays should be given specific actions, as problems related to movement control may persist into adulthood. Objective: To analyze the influence of a motor intervention on motor development and attention levels in children with motor delas. Methods: 28 Students of both sexes, aged 7 to 10 years, with motor delas were evaluated. Before and after the intervention, the children were submitted to motor evaluation, levels of attention, and difficulties in writing. The children participated in 20 sessions of a protocol including psychomotor exercises. The paired t-test and Pearson's correlation were used for data analysis. Results: There was improvement in motor skills assessed (<0.001), and at post-intervention attention levels (<0.001). Conclusion: The proposed protocol contributed to the development of motor skills and attention levels of children.
