Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This randomized clinical trial investigates the effects of animal fun program on motor skills in children with developmental coordination disorder. The study involves 40 children from normal school age group 6 to 12 year old, who will be randomly assigned to one of the two groups for a six-week intervention period. Key performance outcomes

-body management truck control, locomotion, balance ,object control,body sequencing social and emotional control will be assessed both before and after the intervention.This study aims to address this gap by evaluating the effects of the Animal Fun Program on both fine and gross motor activity levels in children diagnosed with DCD. By examining objective motor outcomes and child engagement, the study seeks to determine whether this novel, enjoyable intervention can enhance traditional therapy methods, leading to improved motor development and overall quality of life for children with DCD. Data will be analyzed through SPSS version 27.00.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This randomized clinical trial investigates the effects of animal fun program on motor skills in children with developmental coordination disorder. The Animal Fun program was designed to enhance the motor ability of young children by imitating the movements of animals in a fun, inclusive setting. The efficacy of this program will be investigated through a randomized controlled trial. Data will be collected from the normal schools The intervention Animal fun program consists of nine modules and will be given thrice a week for forty minutes, whereas the control group includes normal physical activity.. The study will be completed in six weeks after approval of the synopsis. The study will include 40 kids, male and female. Inclusion criteria for the study will include patients diagnosed with DCD through the DCDQ version 7 questionnaire. Data will be collected from children aged 6 to 12 years old. Changes in motor performance were examined using the Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency 2 will be collected from different schools with normal population . This program includes nine modules based on body management truck control, locomotion, balance ,object control,body sequencing social and emotional control will be assessed both before and after the intervention.This study aims to address this gap by evaluating the effects of the Animal Fun Program on both fine and gross motor activity levels in children diagnosed with DCD. By examining objective motor outcomes and child engagement, the study seeks to determine whether this novel, enjoyable intervention can enhance traditional therapy methods, leading to improved motor development and overall quality of life for children with DCD.Data will be analyzed through SPSS version 27.0
