Training focus
1.Strengthen the strength, coordination and flexibility of the whole body muscles, and promote the development of crawling, sitting alone, and standing movements. Through fine motor training to strengthen the coordination and flexibility of hand movements.
2.Promote the coordination of various organ systems and develop the comprehensive ability of sensory organs.
3.Learn to understand the meaning of simple words.
4.Cultivate children’s attention, memory and observation, promote curiosity, and the generation of preliminary thinking skills. Continuously update visual stimuli and develop children’s observation skills.
5.Develop the perception of sound and music.
I. Cultivation of cognitive ability
l. Visual training
(1) Constantly update visual stimuli, expand children’s vision, stimulate curiosity, and develop children’s observation skills.
(2) Use pictures and toys to develop children’s observation skills.
2.Auditory training
(1)Identify the sound to develop children’s auditory flexibility.
(2) Develop the perception of music. Still soft, rhythmic light music is the main, the rhythm should be fast and slow, strong and weak. Let children listen to music with different melodies, tones, pitches and rhythms to improve their perception of music.
(3) Knock knock knock. Let the children knock some objects that are not easy to knock to improve the children’s recognition of sound and develop the ability to recognize objects.
Second, the development of motor skills
1.Sitting alone practice. When the child can sit alone steadily, you can focus on training the child’s balance ability. Let the child sit alone on the bed or the floor, and train the child to sit and turn his head and turn around to find. Prepare a moderate small stool, when the child sits on it, the feet can just touch the ground, and the feet and calves, calves and thighs, thighs and trunk angle are at right angles. Parents use their hands to hold the child’s thighs, do not support his back, let him find his own balance point. When the child is sitting straight, adults can try to release one hand, only one hand to hold the child’s side of the thigh, the other hand to toys to attract the child to turn his head and turn around to find toys. Left and right alternately induce the child to turn sideways. In learning to turn sideways to find a balance point, and practice using the feet to support the body.
2.Crawling practice. Crawling enables infants to move their bodies actively and explore their surroundings, greatly improving their cognitive range. Crawling relies on the strength and coordination of the muscles of the neck, back and limbs. At the age of 7 months, the infant has a series of abilities such as turning over and sitting, which means that its neck, back and limb muscles have more strength and a certain degree of coordination, at which time it can be trained to crawl.
(1) The action of crawling preparation. Parents use one hand to hold the infant’s knee, the other hand around his chest, so that the small hands hands on the table or the floor to support the body. Then the parents can slowly relax the hand on the child’s chest and encourage the child to stand upright to support himself. Practice 1~2 times a day, depending on the child’s tolerance, decide the practice time, generally 3~5 minutes each time.
(2) Learn to crawl action. Method.
Make the child lie on his back, legs straight, elbows bent to support the upper body. Parents grasp the child’s feet with the right hand.
Parents grasp the child’s feet forward to draw a half arc, so that the knee as far as possible to bend, the heel touches the buttocks, so repeatedly draw arc, do bending and stretching movement 3 ~ 5 times.
After the last leg extension exercise is done, parents hold the back of the child’s two thighs with each hand, so that the legs are bent toward the armpit in turn, and do the bending and stretching action 3 to 5 times.
Put a toy in front of the child, lure him to crawl over to get the toy, adults hold the child’s calves, or hold the child’s feet with their hands, alternately bend their knees left and right to help them crawl forward. Repeat 2~3 times, 1~2 times a day.
3.Standing training: When training children to stand, the legs can be slightly separated to lower the center of gravity, so that they stand more stable. Each time the standing time should not be too long.
4, hand movement training.
(1) Learn to pinch the thumb and index finger accurately to strengthen the flexibility of finger movements and the coordination of visual~tactile activities.
(2) Coordinated action of both hands.
Two-handed play toys: on the basis of the child’s accurate grasp can give the child more than one toy, training him to grab one and then grab one, or send toys to the same hand to the child twice, teach the child to learn to change the toy from one hand to the other hand and then take the second toy.
Two-handed counter-movement: When the child has toys in both hands, the child can be taught to counter-move the toys with both hands. Children can also hold toys with thin handles, such as rattles or spoons, and imitate the drumming action by hitting the small bucket or empty milk powder jar in front of them with both hands in turn.
Teach children to coordinate their hands to tear paper.
(3) Train children to pick up and put down consciously.
Third, the development of habits and life skills
1.Sleep: 7~9 months old babies can easily accept any environment and have certain activity ability, so it is a good period to cultivate children’s habit of sleeping alone. In the middle of the night awakening, parents can go to see soothe the child, but do not carry the child back to their own bed, or once the habit is developed, the child will require adult company, which will bring unnecessary trouble to parents, especially for parents who have late bedtime or have the habit of working at night. The number of daytime sleep for children of this age is still generally 2 to 3 times, 2 to 2.5 hours each time.
2, diet: at this stage, the number of daily feedings can be reduced to 5 times a day, about 4 hours apart, stop feeding once at night. You can start training children to drink from a cup and eat with their hands. This can develop the coordination of the child’s hand-eye movements, but also for its future independent food preparation.
3, defecation: 7 months later, the child has been able to sit alone more stable, and due to the increase in complementary foods, the number of stools also decreased accordingly, 1 ~ 2 times a day, stool properties are also gradually close to adults, according to the infant defecation pattern arrangements for children sitting potty time. Generally in 10-15 minutes after meals or immediately after waking up potty, but it is best to arrange in the morning when you get up. The potty should be placed in a fixed place and washed after each use. Babies should have someone to take care of the potty, and each potty sitting time should not exceed 5 minutes, and there should not be too many times a day. Do not give the child food or let the child play while sitting in the potty. If the child is reluctant, do not force him/her to sit in the basin to avoid resistance to sitting in the basin.
4, the development of the habit of playing alone. Adults do not always have to accompany the child, the child has a certain ability to move, can roll over, sit alone, and gradually learn to crawl, as long as attention to the safety of the play environment, you can let the child play independently. If the child wakes up early and the parents want to sleep more, the parents can let the alarm clock ring five minutes after the time the child usually wakes up, and then postpone it for five minutes two days later, and so on, and then get up after the alarm clock rings. In this way, the child wakes up, it may be appropriate to go back to sleep, or learn to play independently for a while, and so adults get up. If the child wakes up crying, adults do not have to rush to take care of him, so he is likely to quiet down on his own. Parents should take the time to play with their children, but not after each cry, so that the child does not develop the habit of crying for parental companionship.
Fourth, the cultivation of social interaction skills
Cultivate children to know how to be polite and willing to interact with others. During this period, children’s ability to distinguish people has been better, can recognize their own family into, the phenomenon of recognition. However, there is no such situation with children they do not know, and they can get pleasure from living with their peers. Therefore, parents should strive to create conditions that allow infants to have more contact and interaction with small friends, thus promoting their social development. The recognition of adults is not a bad phenomenon, but a stage in the development of children. If the child is particularly sensitive to life, you can temporarily avoid strangers, and first train the child to interact with acquaintances, and slowly the child will be able to accept raw people.
V. Comprehensive training
Throwing game: This game can enhance the child’s upper limbs and hand motor ability, visual ability, and stimulate the child’s positive and happy emotions.
