Intervention  SENSORY INTEGRATION THERAPY  Visual processing tasks - Block designs, matching shapes in photographs, puzzles, identifying geometric forms and alphabets, numbers, and categorization. Body recognition - Indicating various body parts, life-size drawings, rolling right and left sides, and recognizing the body parts by touching. Tactile awareness - sense different textures, touch boards, and recognize shapes. Visual-motor coordination training - Ocular-pursuit training, games using pegboards and moving balls Proprioception - Joint compression, ball squeezing, ball catching and throwing 
Intervention  TASK ORIENTED TRAINING  Kicking ball rolled by therapist while stand by alternate right/left foot. Sitting on table and reaching an object in different directions. Stepping forward, backward and sideways on to blocks of various height. Stand in full base of support and reach the object. Play around by throwing and rolling a gym ball.

Brief Summary  

Cerebral palsy is a non-progressive disorder affecting motor functions, cognition, learning, speech, and independence. Individuals with cerebral palsy often face muscle tone abnormalities, making it difficult to perform gross motor functions in daily activities. Sensory Integration therapy and task-oriented training are two approaches to improve gross motor skills in children with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy. Comparing sensory integration therapy and task-oriented training can help understand how different intervention strategies affect gross motor function, and which is better among the both intervention.

In this study, the participants will be taken from Institute for Child Development of Delhi NCR. Participants will be selected on the basis of inclusion criteria. Study design will be experimental and total sample size is 20. Participants will then be divided into two groups (Group - A and Group -B). i.e 10 participants in each group. Group -A will receive sensory integration therapy and conventional therapy and Group – B will receive task oriented training and conventional therapy. The training programme will be given for 45 minutes, 5 times a week for 4 weeks.
