These self-potrait drawings were done 15 minutes apart by a 5-year-old girl with motor planning and coordination challenges.

Improved Handwriting

“This is a little girl who not long before this cried in my movement class, looking down at her legs, [saying], ‘they don’t work!’ ”

This Before-and-After drawings shows change after 15 minutes of doing innate rhythmic movements. Notice there are no legs drawn in the “Before” drawing; in the “After” self-portrait, she includes her legs!

Thank you to Lisa Muir, BSc hons OT.
