This excerpt taken from back cover:
" Life can be very stressful for kids who have trouble coordinating their physical movements. Everyday activities, such as catching a ball, riding a bike and handwriting, become mammoth challenges. And, difficulty in trying to keep up with peers, both in the playground and in the classroom, can result in loss of self-esteem.

Watch Me, I Can Do It! explains:

the problems these children can face: from being caught in a muddle trying to coordinate several movements at once, to the concentration difficulties these children often display;
the stages of motor skills development children should pass through;
the factors that influence coordination;
and, perhaps most importantly, how you can best support and encourage to improve their coordination.

This book provides parents with loads of activities they can do with their child at home. The games are designed to help specific areas of a child's motor development. For a child, the parent can be the greatest teacher...especially when learning is fun!

First published in 1992 as Skipping not Tripping, this book continues as a valuable guide to helping children develop their coordination and confidence. Watch Me, I Can Do It! is now fully revised and includes a new chapter on improving the handwriting technique of children who are experiencing difficulties.
