In this time to talk about Early Care in children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, it is necessary to design an intervention program, which should be aimed at strengthening the development of the basic brain routes of each child with ADHD, which is reflect in their learning and personal self-control and thus achieve the reduction of symptoms and an improvement in their executive functions:

While it is true the correct functionality of the auditory route is necessary for daily life,


 


At school level, working memory is one of the essential tools to achieve good academic performance and for the integration of the active function by the frontal lobe, the human being depends on the central auditory processing and which was initially performed at the level of the medial nucleus of the thalamus and the primary auditory cortex (López-juez et al, 2004).


The motor development of the child triggers the development of all motor skills and with the addition of postural control, which generates the functionality of balance coordination and muscle tone, as everything in the human being is a process and its maturation culminates in the six (6) years and depends on two aspects: Functional: the number of motor opportunities, and anatomical: creation of brain circuits.
