This study aims to evaluate the effect of two weeks of early Hand-arm Bimanual Intensive Therapy Including Lower Extremities (HABIT-ILE) on bimanual performance in pre-school children with unilateral cerebral palsy (CP) and on gross motor function in those with bilateral CP, compared with two weeks of usual motor activity including usual rehabilitation (control group). We will assess further changes in unilateral performance tests, daily life activities questionnaires and executive function tests. Neuroplastic changes will be assessed using brain imaging (magnetic resonance imaging, MRI) and biomechanical changes will be assessed by using optoelectronic motion capture system with electromyography (EMG), to determine the effect of HABIT-ILE on movement pattern and quality.
