Movement is part of motor development, but it influences other developmental domains as well. Emotional development is affected by movement, including self-awareness, self-regulation, and impulse control. Social development also relies on impulse control, including controlling aggression as well as an ability to understand nonverbal communication. None of this development can happen without movement, and the more movement allowed or encouraged for children, the more likely it is that they will experience positive social and emotional development.
