    "abstract": "The current study investigated eye-hand coordination in\nnatural reaching. We asked whether the speed of reaching\nrelated to the quality of visual information obtained by young\nchildren and adults. Participants played with objects on a\ntable while their eye and hand movements were recorded. We\ndeveloped new techniques to find reaching events in natural\nactivity and to determine how closely participants aligned\ngaze to objects while reaching. Reaching speed and eye\nalignment were related for adults but not for children. These\nresults suggest that adults but not children adapt reaching\nmovements according to the quality of visual information (or\nvice-versa) during natural activity. We discuss possibilities for\nwhy this coordination was not observed in children",
