A quantitative research study was advanced with the help of pre-test post-test experimental research design. Participants of the current study were 15 children within the age range of 7-12 years. A pre-test was conducted to assess the cognitive functions such as, concentration, motor coordination and working memory. Then the participants were undergone 8 weeks of exercise using CCET. The data were statistically analyzed by using SPSS.
