Lifting high is definitely an interactive game that is loved by small babies, just like hide-and-seek, and the degree to which children enjoy it makes adults scratch their heads.
Throw it high and catch it again, this feeling of vacating can always make children laugh.
But you know what? The slightest carelessness in this game can lead to danger and even ruin a child's life. For some families, how much they wish they had never played this game before!
The 4-month-old baby accidentally falls when he is lifted high, or becomes a vegetative person
There is a feeling called brotherhood, and there is a kind of happiness that you are a brother and I am a sister. The brother's brotherhood for his sister is sometimes no less than that of his parents.
One of the things my 14-year-old brother looks forward to most every day after school is to tease his 4-month-old sister, who does not realize that danger is approaching.
On this day, the brother learned the appearance of an adult and played a game of lifting with his sister.
Looking at his sister's happy look, his brother threw more vigorously, but after all, he was only a 14-year-old teenager, and he did not catch it without paying attention, causing his sister to fall directly to the ground.
Parents rushed their children to the hospital for treatment, but the diagnosis was somewhat desperate.
The back of the 4-month-old baby's head was as fragile as tofu, and the fall caused the child to fall into a coma, and the doctor said that even if he woke up, he might become a vegetative person.
It was not long after the incident of the father lifting the baby into the ICU, and then there was a vicious accident of "lifting high", which was really regrettable.
Why do babies like exciting games like "lifting high"?
In the book "Concentration Development", it is introduced that rotation and rapid movement can stimulate the vestibular development of children.
Pediatricians believe that children feel the excitement of rising in the air during the game, but because they are younger and cannot realize the existence of danger, they will emit "giggling" laughter.
Usually this irritation is divided into two types:
Sensory stimulation:
The height of the father, combined with the distance from which the child is lifted, will make the child feel that the ceiling that was originally out of reach is now close at hand, which has a strong visual sense for them.
And standing high and looking far, the father throws high, the child can see farther, which is also another different sensory stimulation;
Vestibular stimulation:
Vestibular sensation is a part of the human sense that can feel the gravity and speed of the earth, and the rising sensation felt by the baby's body during the process of lifting high will stimulate the vestibule and help it develop better.
Although the game is good, we must be cautious when choosing, especially for babies under one year old, do not let the game become a "killer" that causes harm.
What dangerous games can't be played with children?
Playing with a baby is actually exquisite, and many seemingly child-loving behaviors in life are actually very harmful.
For example, the common "big hand holding small hand" is also a dangerous behavior for children before the age of five, which is easy to cause children to pull elbows, that is, radius dislocation.
The following is a specific list of several games that are not suitable for parent-child play to avoid danger from the source.
One is to pluck the radish: parents hold the child's hand or head, let the child's foot off the ground, such a game light cause dislocation, heavy lead to spinal injuries, and may even be paralyzed;
The second is to circle: parents hold their children's hands and keep turning in circles, which will not only cause arm strains, disconnections and other injuries, once the hand is not caught, the consequences will be unimaginable;
The third is the "riding neck" that many people have played, and it is lucky that there is no danger, but once an accident occurs, there is no room for regret. The baby's center of gravity is unstable, even if the parents support it, there will be a danger of dumping, once the dumping is difficult to catch in time, the child will fall from a high place.
What are the recommended parent-child interactive games?
1. Scarf game
Put the scarf in front of the baby, and the parents gently blow the scarf, which can stimulate the baby's touch.
You can also throw the scarf up, so that the baby can find the direction of the scarf, which can not only exercise the baby's vision, enhance the ability to distinguish the direction, but also stimulate the vestibular development well.
2. Touch and massage
Parents can learn some simple pediatric massage, give the baby a body massage every day, not only has a certain health care effect, but also helps to enhance the parent-child relationship.
Through physical contact, the baby can better feel the love of the parents;
3. Make a splash
In the case of weather conditions, parents can prepare water in the baby's bathtub and teach the baby to make a splash, which can increase the child's sense of safety while exercising the child's arm strength.
PS: The water temperature must be suitable for the baby.
Games are an important way to pull the distance between parents and children, but for the safety and health of children, we must choose the right type, and games with safety hazards should try not to touch.
