But for variables of Eye hand coordination (0.05> P, 1.20 = F) and speed of movement (0.05> P, 1.20 = F) there is no significant difference. Thus, based on the findings obtained from this study is worthy That paying particular attention to the more the capabilities of blind children in various fields, in particular motor skills and it is generally the basis of age, .
