It is revealed that parental stress, absence of games and lower exposure to interactions that promote development are connected to changes in cognitive, emotional, and learning processing, in addition to exerting a negative impact on motor and language development.Conclusion: The evidence suggests that social distancing can be the main cause for the onset of delays in child development, in its motor, language, cognitive, and socioemotional areas. 2023 artículo científico 1657-5997 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=74176281002 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/741/74176281002/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/741/74176281002/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/741/74176281002/74176281002.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/741/74176281002/movil 10.5294/aqui.2023.23.3.2 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=741 Aquichan application/pdf Universidad de La Sabana Aquichan (Colombia) Num.3 Vol.23
