Dual-task exercises for children with mild mental retardation
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests whether doing two tasks at once (like walking while counting) helps children with mild mental retardation improve their thinking and movement skills. It can help families find new ways to support their child's development.
