How to cultivate baby's thinking ability

The best parenting education is to play colorful parent-child games with your baby. The following is what I arranged for you. I hope you like it.

Parent-child thinking promotes education

Before 1 year-old, there was only perception and simple thinking about things. After 1 year-old, with the progress of language, babies began to have a general reaction to things, and the earliest and simplest thinking activities appeared. 2 to 3 years old, with low-level thinking and perceptual action thinking. Before the age of 3, the baby's thinking is characterized by intuitive action. Only when he perceives the whole thing with intuition or thinks with behavior can he move. At this time, the baby only considers what his actions have touched, and can only think in actions and activities. He can't think without his current actions, and he can't predict the outcome of his activities. After the age of 3, the baby's specific image thinking will dominate the whole baby period. During this period, the baby mainly relies on the association of specific images of things to carry out thinking activities. The main characteristics of thinking are concrete images and the possibility of preliminary abstract generalization.

According to the characteristics of baby's growth and development, we should cultivate baby's thinking ability from the following aspects:

1 Protect curiosity: Curiosity is the psychological motivation for the baby to drive thinking. Babies are curious and easily satisfied, and will gradually decline with age. An effective way to protect curiosity is to always use what happens around you to inspire your baby to think, take your baby to visit, explore and understand the environment, new things and new problems, and make new friends. The more exciting the external world you contact, the greater your curiosity, the stronger your interest, the more things you will notice and the more you will be diligent in thinking.

2 create questions to inspire thinking: the baby is curious and loves to ask questions. Adults should make full use of this feature to guide their babies to explore the world and stimulate their interest. At the same time, they should create more problems and ask them to stimulate and cultivate their thinking. Pay attention to knowledge and interest, which can not only make the baby understand, but also inspire, preferably things and phenomena that the baby has experienced or contacted personally and the answers are easy to find. Of course, you can inspire your baby's brain with exaggeration and inspiration, or with games.

3 Encourage the baby to explore and practice: while cultivating the baby's brain, we should also pay attention to the hands-on ability and create as many opportunities for the baby to practice and do it yourself as possible. Give your baby a variety of toy materials and game conditions, so that your baby can have fun. In the process of playing, you can play tricks, think with your head and solve problems independently.

4 Inspire thinking: When the baby encounters obstacles in thinking, inspire in key places to help the baby break through the difficulties in thinking. Many parents do not understand this truth. In the process of helping the baby, they are used to replacing the deer with their sister, which is not conducive to the development of the baby's thinking.

⑤ Frequent conversation: Talking with your baby is the easiest thing to do in family education. Talking anytime and anywhere can help you understand your baby's thoughts and hopes and stimulate your baby's thinking. Babies always want their parents to support their ideas and wishes. If parents don't support it, they should also discuss it with the baby, and it is not appropriate to simply deny it. Family conversation should be equal, vivid, cordial and humorous, so that the baby can feel that he is valued.

Specifically, there are the following methods suitable for cultivating thinking ability:

① Learn to classify: classify daily necessities or foods according to some similarities, such as color, shape and characteristics. Parents should pay attention to guiding their babies to find the characteristics of classification, such as the similarity of items. Therefore, let the baby pay attention to the details of the items, thus enhancing the baby's observation ability.

2 Understand large groups and small groups: First, teach your baby some names about groups, such as furniture and animal food. Let the baby know that each group has its similarities. At the same time, you should also let your baby know that a large group contains many small groups, and the small groups are combined into a large group. Like animals? Bird? Sparrows. So as to cultivate the concepts of classification and grouping.

③ Understanding the concept of order: This kind of learning is helpful to cultivate the baby's reading ability and is an important way to train the baby's logical thinking. The order can be from big to small, from hard to soft, from sweet to light and so on. , and vice versa.

④ Establish the baby's concept of time: The baby's concept of time in this period is very vague, and it is necessary for the baby to master some words that express time and understand their meanings. Does the baby really know "in? After the meanings of words such as "before", "immediately" and "immediately", some people will be more adapted to the rules, so there are social factors.

⑤ Understand the basic concept of numbers: Some babies can count from 1 to 10 or more when they are two or three years old. It is not so much a "number" as a "back". When the baby counts, it is not appropriate to rush, and parents should be more patient. Let the baby touch the items with his hands while counting, and gradually transition to "silently counting" with his eyes. In daily life, the concept that can be accurately expressed by numbers should be told to the baby as accurately as possible. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the use of "first", "second" and "third" ordinal numbers. You can also use the digital relationship in daily life to help your baby master some concepts of addition and subtraction.

6. Master the concept of space: Adults often mistakenly think that babies are born with spatial concepts such as "up and down, left and right inside and out", but this is not the case. You can use various opportunities in daily life to guide your baby, such as "Please put the spoon in the bowl". It is more difficult for babies to master the concept of "left and right".
