ABSTRACT
In the complex of all factors that in uence the growth and development of children from birth until adulthood, the level of motor stimulation and physical activity (PA) is one of the most important. A small child can learn to be active, skillful, and ef - cient or can learn to become the opposite-unwilling to move, thus remaining clumsy and easily tired. In this respect, early stimulation plays an essential role. For those with favorable genetic endowment for skill and other motor predispositions, an optimal level of PA is easier and more acceptable, but through proper education all children can achieve a desirable level for health. Geneticists usually recognize three main genetic dispositions-for music, mathematics, and “acrobatics”—that is, an optimal neuromuscular coordination suitable for exercise.
