Fine motor skills refer to the ability to coordinate different movements of small muscle groups with precision, for example between the hands and the eyes. It requires muscle and central nervous system development. Although newborn babies move their arms and hands, these movements are reflexes of their body and are not intentional movements.

Just as gross motor skills develop in a progressive order, so do fine motor skills. Sometimes the progress is rapid, on other occasions the delays or little progress become frustrating, but innocuous.
