Whether a child is smart or not, in fact, you can see it by looking at the child's small hands, and you don't have to wait to grow up. A smart brain shows signals in the hand, why is this happening?
That day, I accompanied Fa Xiao to take the child to do child care, and after the doctor gave the child a developmental assessment, he took the results and sent a novel, your child is a smart girl.
"Doctor, don't make me happy, the child is so young, how can you tell so quickly whether the child is smart or not?" Although Fa Xiao said so, I should be very happy when I saw her smiling.
"There are several items in our development assessment about fine movements, which mainly refer to the ability of children to skillfully use their hands and upper limbs, the more flexible the children's hands, the better the brain development, and the smarter the children. The doctor explained to Fa Xiao.
Hearing such a professional explanation from the doctor, I can't help but think of Professor Li Meijin, I believe that many parents know this professor, and I have also listened to a lot of her lectures, one of them, she also said such a sentence, children are smart or not, just look at the hands.
When I got home, out of professional habits, I flipped through the books on brain science and child development, and it turned out that the more flexible a child's hands are, the more their brain development is stimulated!
01. Why do children know if they are smart or not?
Whether the child is smart or not, he doesn't have to wait to grow up, he can see it by looking at the baby's small hands, and brain science will give the answer.
Have you ever heard of the "Pengfield Map"?
The Penfield homunculus is a theory proposed by Canadian neurosurgeon Wilder Penfield based on the mapping of the cerebral cortex to body parts.
By performing brain surgery and nerve stimulation experiments, Penfield created a "map" of the parts of the body that correspond to the brain.
As you can see from the Penfield map, the part of the hand occupies a large area in the cerebral cortex.
This is because the hand is one of the most important sensory organs in human beings, with a high degree of motor control and the ability to perform fine manipulations.
Therefore, the movement of the fingers is closely related to the motor cortex of the brain.
According to the Penfield map theory, the fine movement of the fingers can stimulate the brain regions connected to them, promote the differentiation and development of brain regions, and thus improve thinking ability and intelligence level.
Judging from the "Penfield map", the area controlled by the cerebral cortex corresponding to the hands is relatively large, accounting for almost one-third of the control area of the cerebral cortex. For this reason, the hand is also known as the "second brain" of the human body.
Therefore, whether a child is smart or not, will show a "signal" on the hands, generally speaking, if the child has these 3 characteristics in his hands, then congratulations, your child is a smart baby.
02. If the child has these 3 characteristics in his hands, congratulations, your child is a smart baby
1. Strong grip
If every time you gently place the toy in your baby's hand, the baby can grasp it with unexpected stability, and the baby can even grasp some smaller, more detailed objects, like a fine craftsman.
In fact, this action of the child is not accidental, but a clear proof that his hand muscles have gradually become flexible and powerful.
This not only means that the child's muscles are growing, but also that his brain has been exercised silently, laying a solid foundation for future development.
2. Flexible fingers
If your baby can pass toys from one hand to the other with ease like a magician, it's like playing an exquisite acrobatic show. Or, with his slender fingers, he can pinch, with precision, tiny and delicate objects. At this moment, you may want to applaud and cheer for your baby.
Because it's not just the flexibility of his fingers, it's also a testament to the rapid development of his brain.
This hand-eye coordination, like that of an excellent conductor, directs his every movement with precision, showing extraordinary talent and potential.
3. I like to touch this and that
Is your baby always curious about the world around him and likes to touch this and that with his hands?
His every movement seems to announce to the world: "I want to know you, I want to explore you!" This curiosity is the most valuable asset of the baby.
By constantly exploring and touching, your baby's brain receives richer information that further promotes his development and growth.
So, when your baby shows this curiosity, give him more support and encouragement to make his journey of discovery even more exciting.
03. How to stimulate children's small hands and help babies promote brain development?
1. Let your child's little hands move fully
The more a child's fingers are exposed to the environment, the more they can stimulate the continuous development of the brain.
A child's little hand is like a small explorer, and through touching, grasping, patting, etc., they are not only able to perceive the shape and texture of objects, but also promote the development of corresponding sensory and motor areas in the brain.
So, it's really a good idea to get your child's little hands fully moving!
For example, we can let the child play with the sand, because although the sand is solid, it will flow through the fingertips when held in the hand, and the child will touch it again and again.
You can feel a wonderful feeling everywhere in the palm of your hand, and you can also continuously impact the nerves of your child's hand and promote brain development.
In addition to playing with sand, there are plenty of other activities to stimulate your child's little hands.
2. With the help of tools that promote the "intelligence" of the hand
In the book "Deliberate Practice", it is said that if you want to cultivate a genius, then you must first create an environment for the genius, and secondly, you must give the genius the tools to take advantage of.
Let's think about it, if you're a chef but you only have a blunt knife and a bunch of rotten leaves, can you make a full feast?
Therefore, the same is true in the matter of exercising the "intelligence" of children's hands. So how to exercise the "intelligence" of children's hands?
Here I recommend this set of "Left and Right Brain Development Stickers", as soon as you look at the title of the book, you know that this is not a simple set of sticker books.
Yes, this set of sticker books is a set of professional sticker books with training purposes, which is used to train children's small hand dexterity and promote children's brain development.
You may be curious, how do sticker books train children's little hands?
We all know that the surface of the human body is full of tactile senses, and the touch of fingers is particularly sensitive. When children touch or fiddle with objects with their hands, there is also a process of analysis and thinking. Exercising children's little hands is actually doing gymnastics for children's thinking.
Like a child, you need to use your thumb and forefinger to tear the sticker off the paper and stick it to the corresponding position in the background painting. This places high demands on the child's fingers.
Therefore, in the process of sticking paper, the child's little hands tear and paste. In this process, the baby's little hands are invisibly exercised.
This set of "Left and Right Brain Development Stickers" has a total of 16 volumes, with different training themes, such as training children's hands-on ability, cognitive ability, attention, classification ability, reaction ability, etc. Needless to say, everyone knows how much a child's training in these abilities will help him (her) in the future.
This set of sticker paper scenes is diverse and interesting, through the small hands to tear and paste, not only for the child's early education enlightenment, but also for the child's left and right brain development.
In each scene, the personnel object, problem solving and hands-on stickers are combined, and each book has enough stickers to let the child play enough.
Many mothers around me have bought this set of sticker picture books, and secretly tell you that this is also an artifact with a baby, and many children can't stop playing with it. You can also free your hands. If you also want to develop your child's left and right brains, click on the bar below to place an order.
