How can we work visual-spatial orientation?
Visual-spatial orientation is the natural ability to maintain the body orientation and posture in relation to the surrounding environment (physical space) at rest and during motion. It is very important to work the visual-spatial orientation with children because visual-spatial skills are important in the development of gross and fine motor skills.
To improve the visual-spatial skills we can use different types of resources, such as puzzles, memory games, or mazes. However there is a huge amount of resources we can use to improve it. Here you’ll find a whole set of puzzles that is perfect to practice visual-spatial skills.
