Abstract	Fine and gross motor skills are essential for healthy development. Studies suggest that children in lower socioeconomic status (SES) families present a delay in these essential motor skills and, therefore, are at risk for poor motor skill development.This study aimed to correlate fine and gross motor skills with family socioeconomic status, as defined by parent education level. 87 children between the ages of 3-5 years were assessed and their family demographic information was analyzed. The results suggested that there was a significant correlation between SES and fine and gross motor skill performance. Results indicate that children from low SES families are more likely to have weaker fine and gross motor function Keywords: Preschool, Children, Socioeconomic Status, Fine Motor, Gross Motor, Motor Skills
