Emiliano is a happy boy
By Alexandra Castrillon | Project Leader

The activities that we are developing with emiliano are directed to the harmonious development of each one of his dimensions, taking into account that the achievement in motor skills is very important for the development of all the areas. He has encouraged his attention and this is an important skill that we have to promote. He looks with attention when someone talks to him, he smiles and emits some vocalizations.
He starts to make reactions of aerial and face down straightening, because now he can support his body with his arms when he is face dowm, and he can hold his head in front. Also, when he is dragged as a stimulation game, he can hold his head during the whole route. We have reinforced the extension of his arms, because they still are bent in front of the chest and it is necessary that he starts to spread them out in front, in order to establish comprehensive patterns searching for the space, the coordination eye-hand, the near vision when he spreads out his hands and looks his fingers, and, the coordination eye-hand when he takes and carries toys to his mouth.
