Summary/Abstract: In recent years, research has increasingly focused on children with difficulties in motor coordination, particularly those with suspected Developmental Coordination Disorder. Impaired motor skills negatively affect their academic achievement, daily functioning, and social participation. Although symptoms often appear in early development, they are frequently identified only after entry into primary school. The kindergarten environment therefore plays a significant role in the early recognition of risk indicators. The aim of this paper is to highlight the importance of early identification of difficulties and to outline possibilities for supporting children with suspected coordination disorder in the kindergarten setting.
