Abstract

Motor functions are those functions that begin with the ability to control the muscles of the eyes, mouth and control head movements, all the way to controlling the movement of the arms and hands and the related sensory capabilities necessary for this movement, and the current study aimed to prepare a program for early intervention for the development of motor functions for children with cerebral palsy, The researcher used the experimental method ,The researcher selected a sample of (20) individuals from children with cerebral palsy attending outpatient clinics at the Children's Hospital, Ain Shams University (Demerdash) at an early age of (birth – 18) months, and the researcher applied the following measures prepared by the researcher (A measure of the development of attention and visual communication in children with cerebral palsy; a measure of the development of oral motor performance in children with cerebral palsy; A measure of the development of head movement control in children with cerebral palsy; a measure of motor development of control of the arms and hands; and the researcher reached the following results. The effectiveness of the early intervention program on the development of motor functions in the experimental group of children with cerebral palsy in their residential environment. There were statistically significant differences between the averages of pre- and post-measurements on the development of attention and visual communication for children with cerebral palsy. There were statistically significant differences between the averages of pre- and post-measurements on the development of oral motor performance in children with cerebral palsy. There are statistically significant differences between the averages of pre- and post-measurements on the development of head movement control for children with cerebral palsy. Finally, there were statistically significant differences between the averages of pre- and post-measurements on the motor development of control of the arms and hands for children with cerebral palsy in hand skills.
