Summary/Abstract: Psychomotricity and the development of pregraphic acquisitions in preschool children involve components such as body schema knowledge, spatial organization and orientation, laterality, and temporal organization. By means of these dimensions of development, the child orients himself and then operates with concepts indispensable for his development and integration towards other educational environments such as kindergarten and then school. The preschool period is the beginning of manifestation of the most important motor, cognitive and affective acquisitions, which, through specific activities and games, facilitate the formation of fine skills in the child and prepare him for the execution of the gestures that writing actually requires. The entire physical, cognitive and graphic evolution of the preschool child is correlated with the development of motor skills and the rest of the developmental dimensions, and relevant in this sense, on the dimension of stimulation and development of fine motor skills, are the child's scribbling, drawing and writing stage.
