Timing a strike. A ball rolls down a track toward the boy, who has to hit it sideways with a bat. The strikes of healthy children were generally tau-guided, but those of children with CP were less strongly so. (van der Weel, van der Meer & Lee 1996) |
Pronating and supinating the wrist. Children with CP often find this difficult, but when the movement is fun like banging a drum their movement is improved.
(van der Weel, van der Meer & Lee 1991)
