Comparative Effects of Play-Based Therapy and NDT in Diplegic CP

To compare the efficacy of play-based therapy versus NDT in improving fine motor skills in children with Spastic Diplegic Cerebral Palsy. Inclusion Criteria * Confirmed medical diagnosis of spastic diplegic cerebral palsy by a healthcare professional. * Children aged between 8 to 12 years old (Raipure, Kovela, \& Harjpal, 2023). * Documented difficulties in fine motor skills, assessed by a standardized motor skills evaluation tool. * Ability to understand and follow instructions, with or without assistance, to participate in the therapy sessions. * Written informed consent from parents or legal guardians, allowing the child to participate in the study. Exclusion Criteria * Presence of any other significant medical condition that might interfere * Diagnosis of other forms of cerebral palsy (e.g., hemiplegic, quadriplegic).(Raipure et al., 2023). * Severe cognitive impairments that would prevent understanding or participation in the therapy sessions. * Presence of uncontrolled medical conditions (e.g., severe epilepsy, cardiac conditions) that would pose a risk during physical activity. * Previous extensive therapy for fine motor skills in the past 6 months, which might influence the study outcomes. * Lack of compliance or cooperation from the child or parents/guardians during a preliminary assessment.(Raipure et al., 2023). All participants will be given the intervention for 45 minutes, 4 days a week, for 3 consecutive weeks.
