Recently I met an acquaintance with a six-month-old baby. The toddler looked cutely out of the stroller and watched everything in surprise 😍
“I want to enroll him in an early development school, but they don’t take him anywhere,” the baby’s mother said with annoyance …
He's still quite small! - many will say.
It was necessary to give even earlier, so much time has been lost! - someone will think.
And after all, informational pressure often confuses parents.
- Kaaaak, have you shown Doman's cards to your child since birth?
- You don't teach him to read according to Doman's system "we read from the cradle"?
- Do you watch cartoons for more than five minutes a day?
- You haven't registered your child for speed reading / mental arithmetic / English / Chinese /…?
And here's how to understand an already alarmed mother, what to focus on and when to develop a child, what exactly should you pay attention to? How not to miss a moment, not to waste time? How not to waste it?
Indeed, very often mothers complain that "we learn, we learn these numbers / letters / … / but all in vain":(
I would like to draw your attention to the fact that there is no need to overload a child from the cradle with "development tools". This is most of the time wasted …
It is necessary to form certain skills in suitable (sensitive) periods for this. In other words, when the areas of the brain responsible for a particular skill are ripe for this. This also applies to the difference in colors, and teaching letters, reading, writing, counting, etc. Everything has its time! It is better to spend time with your child in a fun and emotionally saturated way - there will be much more benefits!
SENSITIVE PERIODS for child development:
* infancy (from 2 months to 1 year).
Fine motor skills are formed, the sensory area develops, the child learns the world using auditory and tactile sensations.
* 1 (1, 5) -3 years old. Period of vivid speech perception, vocabulary replenishment. At this age, the child is very receptive to learning foreign languages. It is also favorable for the development of motor skills, manipulation of objects, perception of order. The child listens, accumulates a passive vocabulary, then speech appears, which is objective in nature. The ability to express your desires and feelings develops. The child often talks to himself, which contributes to the development of logical thinking, consistency in speech. Over time, he conducts such monologues mentally.
* 3-4 years. This period is most favorable for acquaintance with the symbolic designation of numbers and letters, preparation for writing. Conscious speech and understanding of one's own thoughts develop, there is an intensive development of the senses;
* 4-5 years old. This period was marked by the development of interest in music and mathematics. The child's activity in the perception of writing, color, shape, size of objects increases, intensive social development occurs;
* 5-6 years old. The most favorable period for the transition from writing to reading. This period is very important for instilling social skills and behavior in the child;
* 8-9 years old. During this period, language abilities reach a peak for the second time. It is also of great importance for the development of imagination and cultural education.
Develop, learn and remember that in life it is much more important to be happy, not a child prodigy!
