Briolight Interactive Floor – Therapeutic Activity #1: Motor Planning

Briolight Interactive Floor – Therapeutic Activity #1: Motor Planning
Interactive floor therapeutic activity No. 1

Dynamic, colourful projection is more than an enjoyable game. The Briolight interactive floor offers opportunities for educational, developmental and professionally supervised rehabilitation activities. Its exercises combine movement with cognitive, communication and learning tasks.

Movement coordination and motor planning

To solve a task, the child performs movements of different intensities and complexities while also making decisions. The system creates opportunities to practise gross motor skills and coordination.

In the “Numbers” game, for instance, a child solves a mathematical problem and steps on the correct answer. The game format encourages movement; repeated attempts provide further opportunities to practise the same movement pattern.

Several activities use similar movement patterns while presenting different visual tasks. In “Animals” and “Plants”, children match an image with its silhouette by stepping on the right choice. In “Cars”, they step on moving cars to score points.

Other games include “Insects”, where players step on moving bugs; “Moles”, where they tap the helmets of moles appearing from a vegetable patch; “Rafts”, which involves hopping from raft to raft; and “Save Hippo”, where the player helps a hippopotamus escape hungry crocodiles.

The variety of games may help sustain attention while children practise similar movements repeatedly.

Learning opportunities

  1. Encouraging purposeful movement and physical participation.
  2. Offering specialists additional activity formats for educational and rehabilitation programmes.
  3. Motivating learners and practising concentration alongside movement.

Activities should be adapted to each child's motor abilities and carried out safely under suitable professional supervision.
