In this research, which was conducted to evaluate the effects of trampoline and movement training programs that support visual perception development on the attention and visual perception development of kindergarten children, an experimental model, including pre-post test and control group trial models, was used. The research population consisted of 49 (5-6 year old) students attending the kindergarten of the primary school in Istanbul. Students were divided into 3 groups by bias assignment. At the beginning of the research, Frostig Visual Perception and Frankfurter Attention Tests were administered to the students. The experimental groups participated in the trampoline and movement training program that supports visual perception development, while the control group participated in their own curriculum. Posttests were administered 8 weeks later. Whether there was a difference between the pre-test and post-test scores of the experimental and control groups after the studies was tested using paired sample t test, one of the parametric tests. ANCOVA was used to compare the Frankfurter Attention Test, Frosting Developmental Visual Perception Test and Subdimension Scores of the groups and post-hoc tests were applied to determine the direction of the difference between the groups. The results showed that there was an increase in the attention test scores of the trampoline training group compared to the movement training and control groups. It was observed that there was an increase in the Frostig developmental visual perception test sub-dimension scores of the trampoline and movement training groups, while there was no increase in any sub-dimension scores in the control group. In the comparison of the groups, it was seen that the movement training group was more successful in the Frosting visual perception test Perception of Position in Space dimension than the control group.
