Självklart! Här är en naturlig och korrekt översättning till engelska:
We address new findings in motor development and how motor skills influence attention and cognition. You will learn how factors in the child’s body, the tasks to be performed, and the design of the environment interact in the child’s development, and also how products can either support or hinder that development. Today, inactivity is present from the newborn period, and understanding and preventing its consequences are important. The training provides you with tools to support parents in raising active children with a strong physical self-esteem.
