To take into consideration on this issue:
As far as I can understand, sensorimotor intelligence does not
necessarily need effective motor action to develop. 'Looking' is already
considered an action that has transformational potentials; and,
relatively early, objects can be assimilated to potential and
internally-performed actions.
