    This study analyzes the effect of an intervention program aimed at developing gross motor skills in preschool children who do not receive Physical Education classes at a public school in Cuenca, Ecuador. The research follows a quantitative, pre-experimental, using the Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD-2) before and after the intervention. The sample included 33 children aged 3 to 5 who participated in a structured play-based program over eight weeks (24 sessions). Results showed significant improvements in both locomotion and object control skills, with an overall gain equivalent to one year and three months of motor development. The findings suggest that, in the absence of formal Physical Education, structured motor programs can effectively promote children's overall development. This study highlights the importance of training professionals in Physical Activity and Sport Pedagogy to address diverse educational needs and reinforces the value of early Physical Education.
