Computer games have made it possible to improve rehabilitation therapies and serious games, allowing interaction in a friendly environment that adapts to newtechnologies. Several devices have been used in rehabilitation therapies as an alternative to traditional therapies that are not very interesting for children. The use of these devices that integrate sensors, infrared cameras, accelerometers, allow children to interact in a virtual environment with greater possibilities for learning and creativity. Therefore, a system capable of improving fine motor skills in children is proposed, through a serious game, which will work with a Leap Motion device and a 3D environment. The proposed system will allow the therapist to choose between different levels of serious games according to what the child needs.
