The preschool period is one of the most important periods in a child’s life. It is marked by accelerated growth, development and the acquisition of knowledge and skills from various fields. That is why the involvement of children in kinesiological activities is extremely important in this period. They allow the child to practice various natural forms of movement through play, such as crawling, pulling and walking, and also motor skills, one of them is coordination. Coordination is an innate ability to control body movements that can be perfected through play in preschool. Furthermore, there are several types of coordination. Bilateral coordination allows the coordinated use of the left and right sides of the body when walking, running or jumping. The aim of this paper is to describe in detail eye-hand coordination as a specific form of coordination that is widely used in everyday life, so its development should be influenced from the earliest childhood. In addition to the described development of this form of coordination, games and tests that can be used in working with preschool children also will be described. Eye-hand coordination means the ability to perform movements that require alignment and at the same time use the hands and information received by our visual system. It develops from birth and improves during the preschool period of the child, and therefore encouraging its development is crucial during this period. Play is the best way for children to learn because it allows them to easily and fun master the skills needed in everyday life. In order for games to encourage eye-hand coordination to be age-appropriate, it is necessary to know the developmental characteristics and capabilities of preschool children. Eye-hand coordination is required for kinesiological activities such as throwing and catching a ball, carrying objects, handling props, but also for everyday activities such as stringing beads, writing, drawing and playing board games. Eye-hand coordination tests can assess the extent to which contents of individual games have influenced the improvement of this ability in children.
