Motor skills are skills that require a person to utilize their skeletal muscles effectively. Motor skills and motor control depend upon the proper functioning of the brain, skeleton, joints, and nervous system.
Most motor skills are learned in early childhood, although disabilities can affect motor skills development. Gross motor development is the development of action and coordination of one's limbs, as well as the development of strength, posture control, balance, and perceptual skills. Fine motor skills include the ability to manipulate small objects, transfer objects from hand to hand, and various hand-eye coordination tasks. Fine motor skills may involve the use of very precise motor movement in order to achieve an especially delicate task.
