Brain and body boost: school program improves skills in kids with coordination challenges

This study tested a school program for children aged 7 to 11 with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), which affects movement and coordination. The program combined motor exercises with cognitive tasks like imagining actions and watching movements. Over 10 weeks, 20 children attended sessions three times a week. The goal was to see if this combined approach improves motor skills, posture, and thinking abilities like memory and flexibility.
