Abstract
Background and purpose. Children with cerebral palsy have sensory processing issues as well as motor problems, which lead to severe developmental disability. In this study, we aimed to assess correlation between sensory processing abilities and motor capabilities in children with cerebral palsy and assess the effect of cerebral palsy types on sensory processing abilities and motor capabilities.
Materials and methods. One hundred cerebral palsy children of both sex were included in the study; their age ranged from 4-10 years old were selected from pediatric rehabilitation out clinic of faculty of Physical Therapy Cairo University, fulfilling inclusion criteria. All children were assessed by Short sensory profile: to measure sensory processing ability, Gross Motor Function Classification System: to measure the gross motor skills and Manual Ability Classification System: to measure the fine motor skills.
Result. there was a significant correlation between GMFCS, MACS and the total score of SSP as well as Low energy weak, tactile sensitivity score, taste smell sensitivity, Movement sensitivity, and Under-responsive seeks sensation (P ≤ 0.05*). There was no significant correlations between both auditory filtering and Visual-auditory sensitivity with GMFCS and MACS (P = 0.676 and 0.266, respectively). There was statistical variation among different CP types regarding SSP and motor assessment (P ≤ 0.05*).
Conclusion. the study showed: sensory processing abilities effect on motor capabilities in children with cerebral palsy.

Abstract
The study purpose of this study aims to determine the influence of traditional sports therapy on improving the motor skills of children with special needs. The population of this study is all students of special needs school Sukoharjo and Karanganyar Central Java Province, Indonesia, while the sample of this study is SLBN Sukoharjo and Karanganyar students of as many as 30 people. Research sampling techniques use purposive sampling.
Materials and methods. The data collection technique in this study through a special needs motory ability test consisted of a zigzag run test, softball throw, wall pass, medicine ball-putt, and a 30-meter run. Quasi method experiments with quantitative approaches were used in this study, while the study’s constellation uses the design of two group pretest and posttest design. Data analysis techniques use descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. Descriptive analysis aims to describe the characteristics of this study whereas inferential analysis uses paired test analysis at a significant level α = 0.05, overall, the data analysis is used in the SPSS program version 25.0.
Results. The results of this study can be argued that traditional sports game therapy can improve the motor skills of children with special needs. However, this study is only limited to knowing the motor skills of children with special needs in special needs school Karanganyar and Sukoharjo. It is recommended for further research by considering psychological, psychosocial, and other factors with improved physical fitness in children with special needs as a whole.
Conclusions. This research can be concluded that there is an influence of traditional game therapy on the improvement of motor skills of children with special needs in special needs school Sukoharjo and Karanganyar.

Abstract

Introduction. Overweight and obesity among children and adolescents is a serious problem of developmental age. It affects more and more children. Increasingly, children are consuming large amounts of processed and high-calorie food. Children move less and less because they spend their free time in front of the phone, TV or computer screen. A small amount of exercise promotes the development of excess body weight in children. Low physical activity also causes children not to improve their motor skills. In addition, many researchers point out the negative impact of excess child weight on their physical fitness.
Aim of the study. The aim of the study was an attempt to determine the level of selected motor skills in overweight and obese children and to determine the relationship between excess body weight in children and their motor skills.
Material and methods. The research group consisted of 25 children, including 12 girls and 13 boys aged 12 to 18 years. The subjects were diagnosed with overweight and simple obesity. The Romberg test, Tandem tests, medicine ball throw, toe-floor test, 40 or 60m run were used to assess the motor skills of children. To assess the children’s performance, the spiroergometric test, 6MWT = 6-minute walk test and the Borg scale after exercise were used. The “TANITA” weight was used to assess the body mass composition. The same test was performed in each child and the same tests were used to determine the level of selected motor skills, performance and body weight composition.
Results. The results obtained from the analysis of the results indicate the same development of motor skills in children with excessive and normal body weight. Moreover, the children showed the same exercise tolerance.

excessive body weight, children, efficiency, motor skills
