Course Description

Motor skills support development in all domains because they assist children in exploring their environment and interacting with people and things. Mastering fine and large motor skills is essential for children’s growth and independence. This course will explore how to create an environment that supports both large motor and fine motor development in infant and toddler classrooms. We will also examine creating outdoor environments for infants and toddlers.
