Subjects, Materials and methods: Children with CP who are receiving physical therapy services of both genders, from 4months to 16 years old in Tanta and its surrounding cities were involved. The outcome measures were gross motor functional classification system (GMFCS), gross motor functional measurement (GMFM), manual ability classification system (MACS) and viking speech Scale. Results: Within the study population (224 children), 79.9% are spastic type, 9.8% are dyskinetic, 5.8% are ataxic and 4.4% are hypotonic. Percentage based on GMFCS were; 12.9% for level I, 13.8% for level II, 29% for level III, 20.9% for level IV, and 23.2% for level V.
