Artes plásticas y motricidad fina en estudiantes del Centro de Educación Inicial “Alfredo Costales” Riobamba

This study focused on determining the importance of plastic arts in developing fine motor skills in students at the "Alfredo Costales" Early Childhood Education Center in Riobamba. Plastic arts are a set of artistic disciplines that facilitate the expression of thoughts, feelings, and emotions, allowing fine motor skills to develop optimal abilities for learning from an early age. The methodology used in the research was a mixed-method approach with a crosssectional, non-experimental, and descriptive design. The technique employed was observation, using a 12-item Likert-scale assessment tool designed for this purpose and applied to the 22 children who participated in the study activities. The children enthusiastically engaged in all activities. The results showed that they reached the "In Progress" level in fine motor skills and finger-painting development, though learning percentages varied across tasks. It was also observed that 65% consistently used both hands, while 35% did so most of the time. Additionally, 100% of the children were happy after completing the finger-painting activities. The study concluded that the level of finger-painting and fine motor skills among children at the "Alfredo Costales" Early Childhood Education Center in Riobamba is intermediate, as determined by the observation tool. 70% of students demonstrated good finger control for coloring, and 60% showed excellent stroke precision. Parenting fingerpainting and plastic arts activities in early childhood classrooms are recommended to strengthen children's motor abilities.
