    The present degree work called "IMPLEMENTATION OF A PHYSICAL EXERCISE PROGRAM TO IMPROVE THE DEVELOPMENT OF MOTOR SKILLS AND PHYSICAL CONDITION IN CHILDREN IN CONFINEMENT" has the objective to implement a program of exercises directed at the development of motor skills and physical condition in children during confinement due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The present study of type quasi- experimental it had the first stage, with the evaluation of motor skills and physical condition through a pretest, addressed to children from six to ten years old belonging to six different families; This intervention was carried out virtually two days a week with a duration of sixty minutes and for a period of three months, with scheduled activities emphasizing the deficiencies detected in the pretest; subsequently the post-test was developed, finally a comparative analysis between the pre-test and post-test was carried out. The results obtained in the pretest of basic motor skills were 73.33%, which corresponds to the general average; while the general average of the basic motor skills of the post-test amounted to 83.15%, with regard to physical capacities, significant improvements were evidenced in the musculoskeletal capacity of the lower body, motor capacity and aerobic capacity of children who were study participants. In conclusion, a program of physical exercises aimed at working on motor skills and physical condition in children in confinement is even more effective if it is developed in a systematic and orderly manner based on the results of a pretest. Finally, it is recommended to implement a program of physical exercises with greater duration and weekly frequency.
