Sažetak
The aim of the paper was to consider the relation between motor creativity (fluency) and motor experience in preschool children. According to contemporary creativity theories, experience and knowledge has an important role in the formation of a critical level of motor behavior below which creativity is not possible. Insufficiently stimulated and underdeveloped motor skills and knowledge at this age can be the cause of decreased or ’slumbered’ motor creativity. Estimation of motor performance (motor testing by means of the
validated battery of seven motor tasks) and motor creativity (Torrens TCAM test) has been carried out in Vršac on the sample of 154 preschool children aged 6 to 6.5 years. The results show that motorically more competent children scored better in TCAM test tasks. The obtained results indicate the need to provide preschool children with suitable conditions leading to their optimal motor development and creative motor expression.
