Sensorimotor skills (SMS) encompass coordinated responses to external stimuli, such as clapping or dancing in time to music. These skills emerge during childhood development and are often shaped by acoustic events, such as music and language. The consolidation of SMS is connected to cognitive processes like working memory and attention. In this study, evaluations were conducted on children aged 5 to 8, encompassing both typically hearing children and deaf children, by means of the performance of tasks involving musical synchronization. Although no statistically significant differences were discovered, it was observed that deaf children require approximately twice the effort compared to their hearing peers to attain the same level of performance in these tasks. Additionally, three distinct approaches to gameplay were identified among the participants when carrying out the tasks. The results of this study lay the groundwork for comprehending the gaming strategies employed by deaf children and their relationship to the development of sensorimotor skills within this demographic. This phenomenon may be linked to the degree of linguistic proficiency and motor maturation; however, it is essential to gather additional data to substantiate this hypothesis more conclusively.
