Abstract: The article explores how sports games and physical exercises influence the development of children’s coordination an essential aspect of their physical development. Its relevance is underscored by the current critical state of children’s health and the rising number of children with special needs. Today’s youth must become healthy individuals, integrating intellectual, moral, vocational and physical education. The article aims to define such concepts as “ability†, “coordination†and “coordination ability†, analyze existing literature on how physical exercises affect children’s coordination and examine the role of kinesiological exercises in enhancing children’s motor skills. Research methods include theoretical and systematic analysis of relevant scientific literature. As is known, physical activity plays a crucial role in the effective development of children’s coordination ability. This article analyzes those studies that underscore the significance of engaging in activities such as basketball, volleyball, rowing and choreography to improve it. It also examines the advantages of kinesiological exercises. A key insight of this research is that high coordination levels not only foster physical development but also enhance social and cognitive growth, thereby boosting children’s learning capabilities and their interactions with peers. Thus, it is vital to incorporate physical exercises into children’s routines, considering their age and individual needs.
