Child Development and Milestones
How do gross and fine motor skills develop?
Gross motor skills involve big movements like crawling, walking, jumping, and climbing, helping your child explore their environment and build strength. Fine motor skills are the small, precise actions—like grasping toys, drawing, or buttoning clothes—that develop hand-eye coordination and dexterity. Both types grow hand-in-hand, supported by play and daily activities. Encouraging your child to move freely, manipulate objects, and try new tasks builds these essential skills, laying the groundwork for independence and learning.
