Abstract


Research aims:This study attempted to explain the level of motor abilities of children in the preschool growth phase. Researchers used test visual motor skill (TVMS). This test is not intended to justify a child's motor skills abilities but rather focuses on efforts to improve teaching methods of teachers in schools to stimulate children's motor skills abilities and develop them further.

Methodology:This study uses case study method, based based on early childhood education program in Cisarua Sukabumi Jawa Barat Indonesia. Research conducted on 40 children from 80 children who meet the criteria of the test in Early Children Education

Findings:This research indicates that the achievement the motor ability owned by the child. The higher score level of the child, the higher the child's motor ability and the lower score of the child indicate some limitations or limitations of the child's motor ability to be developed.

Practical Implications:This article provides a discussion on the situation analysis of children who successfully explored is the ability of attention and concentration,fine motor precision, fine motor integration, manual dexterity, bilateral coordination, balance, speed & agility, upper-limb coordination dan strength.

Theoretical Implications:This study expands the existing literature on fine motor precision, fine motor integration, manual dexterity, bilateral coordination, balance, speed & agility, upper-limb coordination and  strength,both of which are the development of motor skills on child development.
