In the eyes of many people,
A child's IQ is mainly genetic
As the saying goes, "Dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the son of a mouse will punch holes."
But is that really the case?
The two children of the friend's family are not highly educated, the male is a takeaway, and the female is full-time at home to take care of the children. Whether it is from the academic background, work or economy, they are not related to "high INTELLIGENCE", but their children are obviously recognized as "high IQ children" in kindergartens.
When I first entered the kindergarten at the age of 3, other children were still in separation anxiety, and Ming not only did not cry, but also took the initiative to be the teacher's little helper to comfort those crying children.
When making a game, the teacher talks about the rules of the game, obviously understands and repeats it, and then takes the children to do it together.
During the class, the other children could not sit still at all, but they could not only sit still, but also listen attentively to the teacher's lectures and actively raise their hands to answer questions.
Before the nap, Ming Ming also became the "nooncaster" in the class, telling stories to the students every three or five minutes.
In kindergarten, because of Mingming's outstanding performance, he was loved by teachers and classmates! Every day, students invite Mingming to play at their home.
The teacher also praised Ming Ming in public in the parent group more than once, saying
He is attentive in class, good in language expression, very smart, quick to respond, and after going to elementary school, he must be a bully
。
People who know Mingming's parents can't help but envy:
You two are not smart, and you have raised a son with a high IQ.
Wen Wen's father knew that Mingming's high IQ must have traces to follow!
Therefore, I specifically went to consult Mingming's mother! Her explanation and method of raising children have benefited Wen Wen dad a lot, and hereby collated and shared as follows.
01, the child's brain development has a peak period
Richard, an activist at Harvard University, has found that over the years of research:
In a child's lifetime, the peak period of brain development "becoming smart" is only 3 times
！ They are 0-3 years old, 3-6 years old, and 7-10 years old.
0-3 years old, the first golden period of brain development
As the saying goes: 3 years old to see big! The reason is that before the age of 3, the child's brain is in a period of rapid physiological development. According to brain scientists,
The brain volume of newborns is only 25% of that of adults.
By the age of 3, brain volume will grow to 85% of that of adults.
Moreover, the neurons in the child's brain at this time,
700-1000 neurons per second are being lapped up
, and whether the speed of the lap is 700 or 1000 depends entirely on the external stimulus.
You know, the more neurons in the child's brain are overlapped, the stronger the child's response and thinking ability and concentration will be. And Ming Ming's mother has seized the first peak period of children's brain development and given children rich external stimuli.
3-6 years old, the second peak period
At this time, the child's brain synapses will increase exponentially, and the infrequent use will gradually degenerate, the child's personality will gradually develop, and the observation and concentration will enter a golden development period.
If parents can adopt the right method to stimulate their children's abilities, it will be very beneficial to the development of children's brains.
According to studies, those children who are enriched with sight, hearing, and touch,
The brain is 20% heavier than the average child
。 In other words, the richer the experience of seeing, hearing, and touching, the better the brain development.
MingMing's mother suggested that at this stage, be systematic
Guide children to receive various potential development training
For example, the game book "The Strongest Brain Left and Right Brain Potential Development", which is often loved, is a toy book specifically aimed at stimulating children's brain development.
7-10 years old, is the last peak of development
Psychologist Piaget called the last peak period of brain development the "concrete computing stage." The main purpose is to cultivate children's logical reasoning, reverse thinking and critical thinking skills.
Brain scientists have found through research that the overlapping of neurons in children's brains related to vision, hearing, language and higher cognition is basically completed before the age of 7. After the age of 12, it is basically in a state of stagnation.

During the 3 peak periods of children's brain development, the highest parental participation is the first two, that is, before the age of 6
。
This age is also the golden age for cultivating children's language expression, cognitive observation, imagination and creation, memory, and concentration. It is recommended that parents seize the opportunity to develop their children's brains with less effort.
target
02, parents do this, the child's brain development will be better
3-6 years old, known as the American Academy of Pediatrics"
Critical to brain development for 1,000 days
”。
At this stage, in addition to providing children with rich nutrition, parents can also give children more "stimulation" to help children develop better brains.
When analyzing the reasons for her son's high IQ, Mingming's mother said: Every exploration of children before the age of 6 is stimulating the links of neurons in the brain, and this connection will stimulate the development of children's cognitive ability, concentration and imagination.
For parents who do not know how to stimulate their children's brain development, Mingming mothers recommend:
Accompany your child to read puzzle books and play various potential development games.
Professor Harvard has studied the peak period of children's brain development, and sincerely hopes that every parent can seize it and cultivate high-IQ children. Moreover, the child's brain development is only a few short years, and it will not help to miss it and regret it!
