0-3 years old, is a critical period for the intellectual development of children. In the process of raising a child, how to stimulate the baby’s brain development is a question on the minds of many new parents. The following suggestions for brain development also answer the question of “how to play with your child” for mothers. Stimulate the baby’s brain development (1~3 months) 1~3 months old baby seems to know nothing. Feeding, burping, bathing, and touching every day, what else can you do but stare wide-eyed? 1. Give him enough security Hug your child more often and give him enough physical contact so that he can continuously feel the warmth of his parents and caregivers. Give him a safe environment and don’t put your child under stress or suffer from trauma, either physical or psychological. Pay attention to your child’s emotional changes and understand some of the signals he is giving off. A child this young will not be spoiled, and any of his needs should be responded to. 2. How to take him to play Give your child some different textured and safe toys, such as brightly colored rattles, teether, and cloth toys, even if he doesn’t know how to play yet. Let him read some picture books and family albums, but if he is not interested, don’t force him. At this age, children are very interested in faces, so you can play hide and seek with your child. Hang a non-breakable mirror next to the crib, he also likes to see himself through the mirror. 3. Language and cognitive skills When your child is awake, sing to him or chat with him, call him by his name and use simple, vivid words. Make exaggerated reactions to your child’s expressions, sounds, and body movements. He may not seem to react much, but you still have to be a self-high chatterbox. Make up your mind, “Baby, mommy is going to change your diaper now”, “Baby, I’m mommy, mom~mom~”, “Yeah, are you hungry, how about we have a milk? ” Dialect? Yes! English? Yes! Martian? Yes …… Stimulate the baby’s brain development (4-7 months) During this period, he begins to live a little like a “human”. He recognizes his caregivers and shows strong attachment; strangers will “recognize” him and cry to express their displeasure; the development of his vision makes him more interested in the world and begins to express his emotions and desires more clearly. The development of motor skills, such as grasping, rolling over, and sitting up straight, makes his waking hours much more interesting and enriching. When spending time with your child, you can do these things to promote the development of your child’s brain: 1. Give him enough security Same as the first part of 1-3 months. When the child is happy or depressed, respond to this. But do not overindulge the child. 2, how to take him to play Put a play mat on the floor, remove excess items that may bring danger, and let him explore and move freely. Play with your child on the floor for a period of time every day and encourage him to play on his back more often. Place some of his favorite toys and encourage him to reach for them on his own. Set up some obstacles in front of him to stimulate his hand-eye coordination and motor skills. Perform rhythmic movements with your child, such as twisting and dancing to music. 3. Language and cognitive skills Sing to your child or talk with him while he is dressing, bathing, feeding, playing, walking, or riding in the car. Your child may not understand what you say, but by listening to you, his language skills will be developed. If your child seems deaf or unable to make sounds, take him to the doctor. Talk to your child face to face and if he makes sounds, you can encourage him by imitating his voice. Tell your child a story every day, and to him, the voice of his parents is the “good Chinese voice. In no time, he will be happy to “read” picture books on his own. If you want to speak a foreign language, you can do that too. Stimulate baby’s brain development (8~12 months) Dang, dang, dang, dang, welcome to the world of little devils!

Encourage your child to play with blocks and soft toys to help develop his hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills and sense of accomplishment. Choose toys that are appropriate but not expensive; sometimes children prefer ordinary items in the home. It is more important to give your child more attention than toys. Play hide-and-seek or hand clapping games with your child to stimulate his or her memory skills. Take your child to meet other children and adults. 3. Language and cognitive skills Talk to your child in normal language, not in child language, not in superlatives like “dinner and rice”. If your child does not seem to be responding to speech or not increasing in articulation and words, have your child checked by your pediatrician. Teach your child to wave his or her hand for “goodbye,” nod his or her head for “yes” and shake his or her head for “no. Read to your child every day.
