The group were equated on the basis of the ability to balance and they were randomly as pairs into two groups so that both means and standard deviations are equivalent. The treatment for a period of six weeks of selected motor activities included minor games,skipping,ball bouncing and jumping exercise were given. The perceptual Motor functioning of children were measured before and after the treatment using the perpetual motor functioning of the children were measured before and after the treatment using the perpetual Motor test battery purports measure the body perception,gross agility,balance,loco Motor agility,throwing skills and ball tracking skill.the result of the study indicate that the group. The experimental showed significant improvement on the perceptual Motor functioning. This proves that the selected motor activities have greater role to be played on the body perception,agility,balance,ball throwing and ball throwing and ball tracking ability on the children who are mentally challenged
