The major focus of the current study was to examine how the motor development of preschool children was supported by their early childhood education teachers during the COVID-19 pandemic through online education. An online survey was applied to collect data from the participants across Turkey. The participants of the study were 294 (291 women and 3 men) early childhood educators who work in a private school. Descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, frequency, percentage) were used to analyze the data. According to the result of this study, 46.3% of teachers reported that online education is not appropriate to support the motor development of preschool children at all. Furthermore, during the COVID-19 pandemic and online education process, 45.9% and 42.2% of them observed no regression or progress in gross and fine motor skills of preschool children respectively. The findings of the study highlighted that online education with preschool children is a difficult process and it needs to be revised.
