-Preparatory Procedures:
* All medical and demographic data of subjects will be collected

explained to the children and to their parents, before conducting the study. All the participants were screened (examined) according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. then met the parents of the participants, told them about the study, and received a written approval from them .
All the children were firstly screened for balance deficit (static , dynamic and functional balance) by using
* Single leg stance Test (SLS) for static balance assessment
* Timed up and Go Test (TUG) for dynamic balance assessment
* Paediatric Balance Scale (PBS) for functional balance assessment
* the assessment and the treatment program, were conducted for each child individually, before and after the treatment period.
assessment :
* Single leg stance Test (SLS) for static balance assessment
* Timed up and Go Test (TUG) for dynamic balance assessment
* Paediatric Balance Scale (PBS) for functional balance assessment
TTT :
Group A will receive brain gym exercises and physiotherapy, while Group (B) will receive physiotherapy alone.
