[Children’s Attention Care Organization]
3 minutes a day to help children improve their attention
When it comes to the topic of games, many people will use: "Playing games is too addictive!" "Playing games loses one's mind" "Playing games delays things" Wait for the label to describe it. Just like many parents, they are always careful to prevent their children from accessing games, worrying that they will delay learning because of addiction to games.
Actually, the game is not as terrible as expected. If the child is really addicted to it, it is indeed a worse thing. However, after the child is exposed to the game, he desperately wants to play the game. If he keeps preventing it, it is easy to fall into a battle with the child.
People have a kind of compensation psychology, the more you can't get the things, the more eager to have them. If a child has the desire to play games, the more you stop him from thinking, he will become more and more eager for games and eventually develop to the point where he cannot manage it. Someone at
once did a similar experiment:
scientists divided the volunteers into two groups, let one group of volunteers be restricted, and reminded them not to eat sweets, while the other group had no restrictions.
As a result, after the restriction was lifted, the group of people who were restricted from eating sweets all desperately did what was originally restricted, but the other group that was not restricted did not have similar behaviors.
can be seen from this: If the child already knows that the game is fun, the parent regards the game as a scourge and desperately prevents the child from playing it. Deep down in his heart, a child will have a constant desire for the game. This desire makes him more tempting to the game, and will eventually reach the point where it is out of control.
In fact, playing games is not as bad as imagined, and even playing games properly has certain benefits.
In 2014, scientists from Germany and Belgium scanned the brains of 152 children with well-developed brains and came to a conclusion: gray matter volume of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and frontal eye movement area of all children
is bigger.
Simply put, the larger the gray matter volume of these two parts, the smarter the child. The interesting part of
's conclusion is that the gray matter volume of these two parts is directly proportional to the time the child spends playing games each week.
In order to verify this conclusion, the researchers conducted a survey and found that the common habit of these 152 children is to like to play games and toys. Therefore, it is confirmed that arranges appropriate games to promote the child's brain development . A study published by
in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience in 2017 showed that

has increased gray matter in the nucleus accumbens and decreased gray matter in the amygdala compared with beginners in board games or Go.
The nucleus accumbens is the area of the brain responsible for processing environmental stimuli related to rewards or unpleasant experiences. Its function is based on the neurotransmitters dopamine (promotes pleasure) and serotonin (promotes satisfaction). The increase in gray matter in the nucleus accumbens will bring more positive experiences and enthusiasm.
The amygdala is a group of amygdala neurons located deep in the inner temporal lobe of the brain. It is part of the limbic system of the brain and is responsible for processing emotions. The reduction in of amygdala gray matter reduces stress and makes more calm.

The brain insula subregions of action video game experts have more gray matter and stronger functional connections. The
insula is a small part of the cerebral cortex, responsible for self-awareness and current subconsciousness. The increase in insular gray matter contributes to better decision-making.
Many action video games can also enhance the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex of the player's brain, and can improve cognitive functions, such as IQ, memory, information memory, and problem-solving ability.
There is a structure in the brain called the hippocampus, located in the temporal lobe below the cerebral cortex. The hippocampus is mainly responsible for memory consolidation and spatial navigation and positioning. The increase of hippocampal gray matter helps to improve memory and prevent dementia. The prefrontal cortex is at the forefront of the brain, and is responsible for "executive functions" such as reasoning, logic, problem solving, planning, memory, guiding attention, developing and pursuing goals, and suppressing impulses.
is understandingAfter the benefits of reasonable play for children's brain development, we can also make full use of the "play principle" to carry out targeted training for children to help children improve and develop efficient learning habits!
Combine work and rest to develop a good habit of active concentration
When planning a study plan with the child, we can also try to let the child apply the "play principle" to the study. In the process of making a learning plan, we can regard free time or game time as a reward after the end of the learning task. The specific reward content of
, we can start with children’s learning and life of emotions, interests, habits, etc., with the help of mental behavior cognitive technology, targeted interventions in children’s concentration, memory, thinking ability, etc., and gradually change children’s perceptions. Know the level and beliefs.
allows children to enhance their self-confidence and sense of accomplishment during the implementation of the learning plan. For this reason, the brain's dopamine secretion is stabilized, which reduces the stimulation of the amygdala and maintains emotional stability.
can effectively improve children's emotions of fear of difficulty and hatred of learning, achieve active and conscious learning, improve procrastination and disorder, and develop a good habit of active concentration.
strengthens brain connections and promotes gray matter production in related brain areas.
When school-age children have obvious inattention and emotional instability, we can also use scientific training methods-EEG biofeedback training. Professional training methods promote brain nerve connections and help children increase the production of brain gray matter.
uses professional concentration evaluation results to tailor training and improvement programs for children. Through professional equipment, it provides a real-time feedback on the child's brain wave movement during the training process to clearly and intuitively understand the child's attention state.
adopts a multi-directional training mode to carry out targeted training on the relevant brain areas of the child, increase the production of gray matter in the relevant brain areas of the brain, and help the child to gain faster and better concentration, memory, emotional management and other abilities. Learning efficiency, scientifically relieve the pressure of learning, and finally achieve a steady improvement in learning ability and academic performance!
Through today’s content sharing, parents may wish to leave a message and talk about your child’s attitude towards playing games as the child grows up?
If you want to know exactly what your child’s problem is, and the corresponding professional training methods, leave a message under the article or in the background, and the expert teacher will provide you with professional guidance for free!
