Corporal expression as a need for the child

Hoy voy a hablaros sobre la importancia de la expresión corporal para el niño.

We can define corporal expression as a means of communication that uses the body as an instrument to exchange and share information. 

It helps him to:

• Self-knowledge: the child knows the possibilities of his body through trying.
• Knowlegde of objects: the child manages objects to know his own body.
• Knowledge of others: when he discovers that other peopple are different, this is the first step to socialization.
