Parents and friends around me often say that they want their children to win at the starting line. They take their children to different interest classes every day, such as small hosts, dance, calligraphy, balance cars, etc. It is really I hope that children can develop in a balanced way from top to bottom. It is understandable that parents hope that their children will succeed. Cultivating these interests and hobbies for their children is nothing more than activating the brain and allowing the brain to develop faster and better.
I wonder if any parents have noticed that in fact, many interest classes are not that children want to attend, but that parents want to make up for their regrets, or feel that their children need them, but they have never asked their children’s wishes, resulting in children Resistance to interest classes, throwing tantrums on the street, and not cooperating with the teacher will not only fail to activate the child's brain, but will lead to rebellious psychology and conflict with the parents. Therefore, parents must choose the right way to help their children activate their brains.
Brain scientist Professor Hong Lan once said: Life is like a marathon, sooner or later it is possible to win. Don't push your child too hard. If you want to activate your child's computer development, try reading and playing games.
1. Reading - Seeing the world from the shoulders of giants
There are many famous quotes about reading, such as "Reading thousands of volumes, writing is like a god" "Study and "Never get tired of teaching." From ancient times to the present, celebrities have told us the benefits of reading to a person. It can not only help you increase your knowledge, but also change a person's outlook on life, values, and world view. At that time, they may not have understood that there is a place in the brain called the temporal lobe, which is responsible for processing audio-visual, memory and emotions. They just summarized a set of principles based on their own experience, and these principles are very correct now.
You will find that when your children are reading, they are very focused, their brains can expand their imagination, and they can follow the plots in the book. Through reading, children can strengthen their understanding of themselves and the world, and their minds are full of things. After learning 100,000 whys, their logical ability and language organization ability are stronger, which invisibly activates the temporal lobe of the brain, making children smarter and more eager to learn. It can be said that reading is like building a pyramid. As long as a solid foundation is laid, the pyramid will get higher and higher in the future.
2. Games - Loving to play does not mean that you are not doing your job
It is a child's nature to love to play. You cannot expect children to be as honest and quiet as adults, as they will lack some liveliness and innocence. Many parents think that if their children love to play, they are not doing their job properly. They want their children to learn all the time and follow their own requirements. However, such a tough attitude will stimulate children's playfulness, but they often get excited for three minutes, touch this, play with that, and look around without knowing what they want to do.
Parents can prepare some fun educational games for their children. It is best for parent-child interaction and adults and children to play together. Don't make a sound when you first start playing the game. Let the children explore on their own. Even if they make a mistake, don't make a sound to interrupt or correct them. Appropriate games can fully activate children's brains, try their best to find solutions, and challenge higher difficulties. You will find that the right games help your child become more focused, spatial and hands-on.
Therefore, there are many ways to activate children’s brains. Parents may not necessarily think that they must attend interest classes, but we must also attend others. In the end, it will damage the parent-child relationship with the children and produce negative effects. Also very poor.
