a importância da psicomotricidade no desenvolvimento integral da criança na primeira infância: uma revisão bibliográfica

Abstract

This research project adopted a qualitative and bibliographic approach, aiming to investigate, through a literature review, the importance of psychomotricity in the integral development of children in early childhood. In this context, psychomotricity, as a field that studies the relationship between body movements and emotional and cognitive aspects, plays a central role in promoting balance and integration between mind and body. Through a comprehensive literature review, the study sought to understand the relevance of psychomotricity in the overall development of young children. Data collection was carried out by means of a non-systematic literature review using academic databases such as SciELO, PubMed, and Google Scholar, with the following keywords: Psychomotricity. Child development. Psychomotor development. Early childhood education. Early childhood. In addition, selected materials (articles, books, and theses) were analyzed based on criteria of relevance, timeliness (published within the last 20 years), and originality. The analysis was organized into thematic categories, allowing for a critical interpretation of the theoretical and practical contributions of psychomotricity. Therefore, all data are presented with academic and ethical rigor, respecting copyright laws. This research thus aims to provide a meaningful and well-founded knowledge base for future studies in this field
