Question

Which parental statement indicates the need for more education related to fine motor skill development for a toddler-age client who is 24 months of age?

A. "My child should be able to turn a door knob."B. "My child should align 2 or 3 cubes like a train."C. "My child should imitate vertical strokes when drawing."D. "My child should turn more than 1 page of a book at a time."

Answer 1

My child should turn more than 1 page of a book at a time.

Explanation:

Motor skills may be defined as the simple muscle action that allows the baby to use his muscles. Two main types of the motor skills are gross motor skill and fine motor skills.

Different motor skills are used in the different age of the toddlers. Crawling, jumping, running, taste and sensation activities are done with the help of the motor skills. The parent statement that 24 months age child can change more than 1 page of book requires additional education as the 2 year age child can only change the one page of the book at the time

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
