Brain Development (earlylearningreview.com.au) |
Bright child is a child who has a high curiosity, and were able to resolve problems quickly and thoroughly. All that can not be measured from academic intelligence.
"There are so many children who have an IQ of 150. But has a bad personality" Said Dr. Ahmad Suryawan, Sp.A
According to Dr. Ahmad, parents should not be too much emphasis on academic intelligence and intelligence forgetting the child's behavior. Children who have the behave intelligence , certainly every thing he does has a purpose. This is demonstrated by its ability to adapt and adjust to the situation and the current situation.
"For example, when at home, kids are always running around in the house, jumping up and down. But, during a visit to someone house, he became quiet boy." Said Dr. Ahmad.
Intelligence and ability of behave can actually be programmed and gradually formed by parents early on.
To form a bright child, both academic, emotional, and spiritual is not instant. It takes an understanding of parents about the child's stage of growth so that parents can provide appropriate nutrition and stimulation developmental age.
The first period was decisive. In fact, in the womb, the child must receive stimulation because the brain is used to behave already begun to form at the time in the womb and growing rapidly during the first year.
Therefore, since knowing she was pregnant, a mother must fulfill the nutritional needs of babies in the womb and continues until the child is born.
When the child was 2 years old, brain circuits have been formed about 80 per cent and reached 90-95 percent when he was 6 years old. Thus, the beginning of a 6-year period is very important for the brain development of children. This period is also called the sensitive period.
During this period, nutrition and stimulation brain becomes very important to give to the baby because it is the best time for all brain delevopment and basic behaviors.
With a balanced nutritious diet, the baby will grow and develop optimally, including intelligence. If parents do not pay attention to this critical period, growth failure will occur and lasts permanently, which will carry on till the end of life
In addition to nutritional needs, as parents we also need to intelligently choose appropriate parenting that child stimulation gained more leverage.
There are four types of parenting, ie, authoritarian, permissive, neglect, and democratic. This parenting should be used alternately according to the situation and conditions, environment, and personality of the child and the parent. The dominant parenting used must be balanced with other parenting.
In addition to parenting, parents should also provide a good environment for her child. This environment ranging from television viewing, magazine, until what was parents and caregivers of children said, must be maintained in order to provide the best imagination.
Parenting and loving environment that will be the best provision for the child's emotional development. Parents also do not criticize, labeling, generalizing, and consider your child as an object.
