BACKGROUND: One common observation is that Brazilian children are failing to achieve the expected proficiency, regarding the chronological age, in performing gross motor skills. PURPOSE: The aim was to verify the development of fundamental motor skills of 6- and 9-year-old children from a public school of São Paulo city. METHOD: Eight two children were selected from the first and fourth Elementary year, 40 children from the first grade (6.6 year-old, 20 boys and 20 girls) and 42 children from the fourth grade (9.2 year-old, 21 boys and 21 girls). Children were videotaped performing the Test of Gross Motor Development tasks, locomotor and object-control subtests. Three experimenters inspected the video images and rated the children’s performance following the suggested criteria. RESULTS: Nine-year-old children were advanced in fundamental motor skill performance compared to 6-year-old, but children from both age groups are delayed to the expected fundamental motor skill development. Moreover, the developmental delay is even worse as chronological age increases, with 6-year-old rated as poor whereas 9-year-old children are rated as very poor in fundamental motor skill development. CONCLUSION: These results raise several concerns regarding the importance of mastering the basic motor skills and future enrolment in motor activities.

Background Provision of adequate nutrients is needed in theearly year oflife to support the most rapid growth and development period in infant's life. Moreover, warm and responsive parent-child interaction associated with breastfeeding is beneficial for optimal child development.Objective The objective of this study was to compare the language and visual-motor developments between exclusively breast-fed and non-exclusively breast-fed infants.Methods This historical cohort study was performed from Mayto June 2009. Study subjects consisted of 6-month-old infantslived in Puskesmas Garuda operational area. Language and visual-motor development were measured by cognitive adaptive test/clinical linguistic &auditory milestone scale (CAT/CLAMS). The differences of CAT /CLAMS scores between groups were analyzed with Mann-Whitney test.Results There were 39 exclusively breastfed and 39 non-exclusively breastfed infants enrolled in this study. No significant differences were found between the two groups concerning the subject or their parents characteristics. Mean CAT/CLAMS score of the exclusively breastfed infants was 8.34 points higher than that of the non-exclusively breastfed infants (P=0.002). Similar outcomes were found in language and visual-motor scales which were higher in the exclusively breastfed infants with the differences of9.82 points (P=O.OOl) and 6.85 points (P=0.039), respectively.Conclusion Exclusively breastfed infants has higher language andvisual-motor developmental quotient score than non-exclusivelybreastfed infants.
