Relationship between play, movement & motor skills in childhood development

The NDIS early childhood approach supports children aged 0-6 years, who have a disability or developmental delay and their parents or carers.

Benevolent Society is the NDIS Partner in the Community delivering the early childhood approach to Moreton Bay, Brisbane, Logan and Redlands.

As part of the approach, our multidisciplinary allied health team are delivering a series of informal developmental information sessions to families and invite you to attend.

For parents and carers, the handicap events sessions are an opportunity to:

• Better understand your child’s support needs

• Learn strategies and receive tools that will promote their development

• Have your developmental questions answered by our team

• Develop a peer support network

Children need gross motor & physical skills for all aspects of eating, dressing, movement, positioning and posture. Learn how to use particular activities, positioning and movements during the play routine to encourage physical development of the body during the early years.
