description Introduction: The problem this research the childrens have low motor skills. This study aims to: (1) assess the motor abilities of children in highland areas, (2) assess the motor skills of children in lowland areas, (3) assess the motor skills of children in coastal areas, and (4) analyze the differences in motor skills among elementary school students based on geographical location (highlands, lowlands, coastal areas). Objective: to state the objective and scope of the research or hypotheses. Methodology: The quantitative research method used in this study involved a survey of  State Elementary School 26 Singgalang Tanah Datar, Padang City Experimental State Elementary School, and State Elementary School 01 Pariaman City. The study's population comprised 188 students, from which a sample of 115 students was selected using the purposive sampling technique. The research instrument such as the standing broad jump, ball passing to the wall, 4-second dash and basketball throw. The instrument has a validity score of 0.64 and a reliability score of 0.92. Results: The results indicate that geographical factors ( highland, lowland, coastal areas) significantly affect children's motor skills. Discussion: Effect of different geographical locations on levels of motor skills. Conclusions:  (1) children from the highland region showed good motor skill levels; (2) children from the lowland region displayed sufficient motor skills; (3) children in the highlands engaged in more motor skill activities compared to those in lowland and coastal areas; and (4) there were notable differences in motor skills between children in coastal areas  and lowland areas.
