Introduction[edit | edit source]

The concept of visual-motor integration is complex and influenced by various factors, including visual receptive functions, visual cognitive functions, fine motor ability and the coordination of visual, cognitive and motor processess[1].

Background[edit | edit source]

The integration of visual and motor skills holds significance in the development of children. It is closely linked to various functional abilities and the capacity to engage in daily tasks[2]. For instance, visual-motor integration plays a crucial role in the acquisition of handwriting skills[3]
