The best age for children's intellectual development

The best age for children's intellectual development is a process, and it is also divided into several segments. Mothers need to actively develop their babies' intelligence if they want to make their babies smarter. So how old is the best age for children's intellectual development? 1

The key period for children's intellectual development is 1: -1 year old, and the key period for sound discrimination < P > After a baby is born for one week, he can recognize the voice of the mother who breastfed him, and after four weeks, he can distinguish different voices.

Training method:

1. After the baby wakes up and is in good spirits, read poems to him.

2. Sing or play music to your baby often.

3. Always talk to your baby and teach him the names of people or things.

4. Always take your baby outdoors to listen to various sounds in the surrounding environment, such as barking dogs, horns and doorbell, and explain them to your baby one by one.

5. Imitate the sounds of animals and encourage the baby to imitate.

6. Take advantage of the game to let the baby distinguish the sounds coming from different directions.

7. Keep in touch with people around you, so that your baby can feel different sound characteristics and patterns.

The key is 2: -2 years old, and the key period of movement development

Training methods:

1. Push the baby's feet with your hands from the full moon and train him to crawl.

2. When the baby is 3 months old, hang some toys over his crib, so that the baby can catch them with both hands and exercise his hand-eye coordination function.

3. Create more climbing opportunities when the baby is 6-7 months old, such as putting the baby on his stomach, putting one or two toys in front of him to attract him to climb forward, and trying to grab the toys to promote the development of his movements.

The critical period is 3: 1-3 years old, and the critical period of oral development

Training methods:

1. Guide the baby to pay attention to the voice and mouth shape of adults and begin to imitate their voices and actions. At this time, it is mainly to train the baby's pronunciation, make his pronunciation as accurate as possible, and patiently correct some ambiguous languages.

2. Guide the baby to associate pronunciation with specific things and people. After repeated training, the baby can initially understand the meaning of language. For example, when a baby says "father" and "mother", he will turn his head to his father and mother.

3. Use all kinds of things encountered in life to ask the baby questions, such as what color the leaves are when walking, and ask the baby to answer, so as to improve his language expression ability.

4. Encourage the baby to talk more and patiently correct the incomplete or inaccurate expression of the baby.

The critical period is 4: 2-4 years old, and the critical period for the development of counting ability

Training methods:

1. Take advantage of various opportunities in daily life, such as giving candy to the baby and going up and down the stairs.

2. Count with your baby with different items, such as fingers and building blocks, to increase your baby's perceptual knowledge of numbers.

3. Use vivid images to teach your baby to know the number symbols, such as "1 is like chopsticks, 2 is like ducks, and 3 is like ears".

4. Design some interesting games for your baby to play, such as finding numbers from digital cards.

5. Use specific examples to teach babies to add and subtract, which can be demonstrated by props such as apples and building blocks.

6. Provide enough physical materials for the baby to do it by himself and find the connection between the numbers.

The key period is 5: 1-3 years old, and the key period for the development of musical ability

Training methods:

1. Choose songs, world famous songs and fairy tale music suitable for your baby, enjoy them with your baby, explain them at the same time, or ask your baby questions to stimulate his imagination.

2. Choose songs suitable for your baby's age and teach your baby to sing. Parental code-an auxiliary work to develop intelligence.

As a mother, we must actively understand the five stages of the baby's intellectual development, so that we can seize the favorable opportunity to actively develop the baby's intelligence, make your baby smarter and better, and let your baby grow and develop beyond most vegetarian children. The best age for children's intellectual development 2

If children's intellectual development can be one step ahead, then children will naturally win at the starting line. It can be said that the best time for children to develop their intelligence is -3 years old. If you can lead children to take some early education courses or play some games that can develop their intelligence at home at this age, it is extremely important for children's brain development. We should know that to develop children's intelligence, the first thing to do is to give them company, and children have a sense of security, which is the premise of intellectual development.

Nowadays, there are many young couples, and most of them leave their children to the elderly to take care of them. Most of the elderly still have old ideas when taking care of their children. It can be said that it is better to let their children take the lead than to take care of their children every other generation. After three years of hard work, you can make a big difference and become an excellent child.

Several key periods

Experts in related research have confirmed that early social and emotional experience is the key to intellectual development. So, what are the five best periods for baby's intellectual development? The five best periods and characteristics of baby's intellectual development are as follows: the key period 1: -1 years old, the key period of voice recognition; Critical period 2: -2 years old, the critical period of action development; Critical period 3: 1-3 years old, a critical period for oral development; Critical period 4: 2-4 years old, the critical period for the development of counting ability; Critical period 5: 1-3 years old, a critical period for the development of musical ability.

Grasping the Critical Period

Knowing the five critical periods of children's intellectual development, we can know fairly well when developing children's intelligence. In the development of intelligence, children can be guided purposefully according to the characteristics of different age groups. Accompany children, accompany children to do sports, accompany children to do music rhythm, etc. Only by careful, professional and scientific parenting can children become the best children.

Please don't let your child "waste away" at the age of -3, when he needs companionship and guidance most. Early development is very important, and you can't get it back if you miss it. The best age for children's intellectual development 3

I. Definition of intelligence < P > Intelligence is a person's ability to act purposefully, think rationally and adapt to the environment more effectively. Intelligence is not only a general entity (G), but also a multi-dimensional and multi-influenced entity, which can express itself in many forms. (Wechsler,1944) Intelligence is also called general ability, that is, the ability that is indispensable for any activity, such as observation ability, memory ability, thinking ability and imagination ability, and its core is thinking ability. Think about it, can we do anything, such as study, work and interpersonal communication, without these abilities?

second, what does the theory of intellectual development tell us?

1. Gao Erdun, the founder of eugenics, is Darwin's cousin. He compared the development results of ordinary people and their descendants, elite people and their descendants, Pope and his adopted children (born in a poor family but changed environment) and identical twins through the method of difference research, and reached the viewpoint of genetic determinism. Generally speaking, this theory means that a dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a son born to a mouse can make holes. This conclusion is of course biased now, but it reveals the role of heredity in the development of intelligence. Modern research further proves that the role of heredity in intelligence is about 3-65%, and heredity determines the highest level that a person can reach.

2. Watson, a representative of behaviorism school, emphasized the great role of environment and education in the development of intelligence. His famous saying is "Give me a dozen children, and I can train them to be whatever you want them to be, such as teachers, doctors, scientists, civil servants, even thieves and robbers". This is the famous environmental determinism, which is biased, but it also reveals that education plays a huge role in the development of ability level.

3. Through the unremitting efforts of many great people, we now know that intelligence is influenced by both heredity and environment, and the interaction between the two influences each other, resulting in the difference in the development of each of us's ability level, which is mainly reflected in three main aspects: one is the different ability level, the other is the different ability characteristics, and the third is the different development speed. If our parents can't recognize this difference, especially the characteristics of children's cognitive ability, they can't follow the trend, seize the opportunity, and create an environment to promote children's intellectual development. Instead, they can only do what the blind touch the elephant, people follow me, and follow the crowd. Finally, they are fortunate to cultivate a mediocre talent, that is, a mediocre talent who will not stand out at all. This is a great change and development in today's society, striding into intelligence and machines to replace people.

Third, the four dimensions of children's IQ assessment

1. The assessment of language comprehension (VCI) ability, which evaluates children's language concept formation, language reasoning, language learning, language development and processing, and knowledge acquired in environmental culture. These assessments mainly examine children's abilities in three aspects, one is the ability to process language information, the other is the ability to think with words and symbols, and the third is the ability to solve new problems by using Chinese knowledge and skills. These abilities are biased towards crystal intelligence, which are cultivated by education and reflect our training achievements.

2. The evaluation of perceptual reasoning (PRI) ability is completely nonverbal. The processing ability of image symbols can be evaluated through games such as building blocks, pictures, graphs and matrices, and children's four abilities can be evaluated, one is the ability to think according to visual images, the other is whether they can process visual information smoothly, the third is to think according to visual information without using words, and the fourth is to explain visual information quickly. These abilities are biased towards genetic talent and are called fluid intelligence.

3. Evaluation of working memory (VMI) ability. Memory is the basis of human wisdom. Memory can be divided into chronological memory, short-term memory and long-term memory, among which short-term memory is used to deal with learning and work tasks, so it is also called working memory. Through the evaluation of memorization, arithmetic, numerical and alphabetic sorting, we can not only examine children's working memory ability, but also examine children's mental alertness, concentration, sequencing, cognitive flexibility and other characteristics.

4. Processing speed (PSI), also called intelligence speed, is the speed to evaluate children's psychological operation and action. Through the evaluation of symbol retrieval, decoding and erasure, we can examine children's ability to quickly scan, sort, distinguish and operate various visual information, and also examine children's cognitive flexibility, visual-motor coordination, police and other ability characteristics.

Fourth, the method of evaluating children's IQ

1. Observation. Our parents live with their children every day, and the children are also our center. Children's language expression, behavior, learning and entertainment practices are presented to us one by one. How to reserve certain psychological knowledge and common skills, it is not difficult to find some characteristics of children's intelligence, especially their strengths and weaknesses. Although these findings are only qualitative, they are not difficult to find.

2. Contrast method. There is a famous saying in economics that "an economist who doesn't know comparative advantages can't be called an economist". This sentence means that every economy and country can develop its own global competitiveness only by giving full play to its own unique advantages, which of course need economists to explore. If this sentence is applied to our parents, it is equally appropriate. "A parent who doesn't know the comparative advantage of his children must be an incompetent parent." When children play, study and interact together, it is a good opportunity for comparison, analysis and judgment. At this time, the similarities and differences between their children and other children are presented in front of you, and a unique and different life is coming to you.

3. Evaluation method: wechsler adult intelligence scale is the most scientific and authoritative intelligence evaluation tool at present, including infant version (4-5 years old), children version (6-18 years old) and adult version. Through professional evaluation and expert analysis, you will get the most detailed and comprehensive assessment report on your children's cognitive ability level, and you will also have a brand-new understanding of your children. With this knowledge, you will be able to create a more optimized educational environment, make the most wise choices and cultivate an outstanding child.

V. Precautions

1. Love me, love my dog, because children who love themselves imagine their children to be perfect. Many parents are like this. They blindly think that their children are smart, but they don't know how smart their children are, and these more specific information are the most meaningful.

2. To generalize, because a child's certain ability can't meet his own expectations, he is disappointed in the child, denying the child, not discovering the child's bright spot or belittling the child's other advantages. The most terrible thing is to label the child with mental retardation. Remember that every child has a genius side. If there is a problem, it is also our parents' lack of insight.

3, static concept, children's psychological development is a long and constantly changing process. It is by no means possible to cultivate an outstanding child with temporary thoughts and efforts. Children are growing every day, and our parents need to learn and grow. If so, we will make new discoveries every day. Sticking to the old vision will make us miss the critical period of cultivating children.
