Motor skill is a physical skill which require whole body movement and is divided into two categories which are fine and gross motor skills.
Gross motor skills:the bigger movements — such as rolling over and sitting — that use the large muscles in the arms, legs, torso, and feet*.
Fine motor skills: small movements — such as picking up small objects and holding a spoon — that use the small muscles of the fingers, toes, wrists, lips, and tongue*
