The general objective was to analyze the importance of games and their effects in gross motor skills in children ages four to five. The research design was nonexperimental with a mixed approach. As being part of a macro project, information was collected from 31 institutions and 465 children. In particular, a population of 16 people was considered, and a sample of six children and two teachers were selected through nonprobabilistic sampling. The methodology used was descriptive, analytical-synthetic and inductive-deductive. Some of the techniques included: observation, application of a survey to the teachers, and application of the development abbreviated scale of Nelson Ortiz. Its application helped to determined that 67 % of children had difficulties in the gross motor area, having complications when performing activities such as walking in a straight line, taking three or more steps on a single foot, and bouncing and catching a ball; all these rooted in the lack of stimulation and confined spaces. This results led to the conclusion that 100 % of teachers apply learning experiences, workshops and learning corners as didactic strategies whereas they play games as fun activities without any specific purposes. |
