Attention is given to specific early movement patterns and activities that appear to prompt neurological development; these are innate and occur naturally in all children, given appropriate opportunities. Movement speaks louder than words for lots of children and through exploring this approach, we see children\u2019s communication, physical movements and sense of physical space developed.
