Abstract

Introduction: In the following narrative review, we present the relationship between the number of weekly physical exercise sessions and how it influences the development of the psychomotor skills of dynamic balance and coordination. Objective: The objective is to determine whether increased motor development—including spatial perception, body control, and stability for performing an activity—is related to the amount of stimulation individuals receive at an early age. Materials and Methods: A meticulous search was conducted for scientific articles focused on preschoolers aged 4 to 6 years, where each study had weekly interventions to compare results before and after. Results: The results obtained demonstrated a slight improvement in body control and stability among individuals following weekly physical activity interventions. Conclusion: It can be established that with greater physical activity stimulation, physical maturation, improved body control, and enhancements in space–time perception can be achieved
