PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT
Psychomotor skills are crucial for this type of
games that help develop them. At these ages it is
so important to teach children to coordinate their
body and thus be able to control it. That is why
games attract the little ones and are necessary for
their development.

SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT
On the other hand, the relationship with social
skills will make the children establish contact
between themselves and develop other
relationships capacities. a great point is that they
can also learn about their own culture, Asturian
culture!
