Abstract Objective To verify the value of early perceptual-motor assessment in preterms. Methods The M-ABC2 was performed below the age 3 years–4 months and 1 year later. Results At 4 years children showed a significant improvement in the scores and reduced rate of refusals. Conclusion Early findings may be related to delayed maturation.
