Abstract

The current century is witnessing a remarkable interest in caring for children with special needs, and caring for them has become one of the most important studies that take the lead in the world with the aim of developing their mental and motor abilities and guiding them so that they are not different from other normal people.
Due to the connection between motor activities and cognitive activities and mental processes, the term cognitive motor abilities has emerged, which emphasizes the close connection between the body and the mind, as indicated by many specialized scientific references, until it occupied a prominent position in the field of training and rehabilitation of the child, as the growth of cognitive motor abilities or their deficiency affects the child's life skills.
The autistic child is characterized by an abnormal motor development in an irregular, progressive manner. Some of them may have excessive movements that are more than normal, while others may have lethargy or motor rigidity and a lack of desire for any motor activity
