Tell me how I became a "tuberculosis mother"
At first, I was stimulated when Dabao was 1 and a half years old. The child of one of my teachers and colleagues is only one day older than Dabao. When we played with the child, I was surprised to find that her daughter was able to recite a few ancient poems. But look at Dabao again, the complete sentence is not very clear.
At first, I thought it was the parents who taught me well, but after talking about it, I realized that most of her children were brought by grandma.
Now I feel unbalanced in my heart. Why is the child brought by my grandma so smart and so good? How is the child brought by my mother worse than others?
I went to learn from other people's grandma. It turned out that this grandma did three things.
As soon as there is nothing to do, chat with your child more, don’t be afraid of talking too much.
Two, often playing audio about ancient poems at home, children will learn more if they listen to it a lot.
Three, tell the child a story every night before going to bed. Many of her children's language expressions are learned from story books.
After taking the scriptures, I learned from the pain, telling stories with my children every night, and chatting with them often during the day, Dabao's language ability has been significantly improved. Especially for storytelling at night, I insisted on my child going to elementary school, and got an additional benefit, that is, my child’s writing ability is better than others.
When Erbao was born, I was determined to be a "talking mother". Er Bao entered the kindergarten at the age of 2 years and 7 months. The teacher praised her that her language skills and learning ability were significantly better than other children who were a few months older than Er Bao.
MIT’s important research
Later, I continued to study on the road of parenting and saw an important research result of MIT in 2018, which proved why the children cultivated by "talking parents" are smarter and more verbal. More capable.
The MIT study sums it up: In infancy, parents often communicate with their babies, and the area of the child's brain that is responsible for language output has much more white matter than those with little communication. In other words, parents often talk to their children during infancy, which can promote the development of the brain and enhance the child's language and expression skills.
Dana Suskind, a famous American professor of pediatrics, pointed out in his book "Parents' Language": "A family language environment with rich corpus is crucial for the development of children's brain." So,
, in the early stages of children, especially It is the period of rapid brain development for children from 0 to 3 years old. Creating a sufficient language environment for him is an important way to help children develop language and improve their brain power.
The benefits of interactive reading
Talk to your children more and read to them. In fact, many parents already know how to do these two points. But what many parents may not know is that there is a way when reading books to their children, which can increase the effect by 6% with .
That is to combine chat and reading to carry out "interactive reading". In other words, don’t just read the story. Instead, you should ask questions and communicate with your children in the process of reading the story.
For example, when telling the story of Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf, you can point to the big bad wolf on the picture book and ask the child "Is this big bad wolf scary?" "Are the big bad wolf teeth very sharp? Huh?" Point to the picture of Little Red Riding Hood and chat with your child. Is Little Red Riding Hood cute? What if Little Red Riding Hood is eaten by a big bad wolf?
The topics of these chats can be very detailed or instructive. The point is to interact with your baby. The benefits of
for interactive reading are also supported by a research result.
Scientists at Harvard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Pennsylvania used more than 30 children aged 4 to 6 in the Boston area as test subjects. They used brain scanners to collect MRI images of the brain activity of these children when they listened to audio stories. And review the recordings of these children interacting with their parents. After the material analysis, SectionScientists have found that the higher the frequency of children's conversations with their parents, the stronger the activity of language-related areas in the brain. In the end, the study concluded that what affects children’s brain development is not only reading or whole-brain courses, but more importantly, the way parents interact with children.
So, when you read with your children in the future, don't read to them dryly. Parents of may wish to talk to their children more about the plot of the story. At the same time, they should also cooperate with the smiling expression and the mellow tone, so that the children can feel the good mood of parents like reading with their children.
Becoming a good parent is a process of continuous learning. Becoming a good parent is a process of patience and love. "If you work hard, you get a reward." Parents who want to make their babies' language develop better and smarter Quickly act.
