The first three years of
life are extremely important in the long-term development of young children.
You can help jump start your babies emotional and intellectual development by
providing the right kind of stimulation.
- At a basic level, facial
expressions, like playing peak-a-boo or smiling can begin to stimulate
your baby’s brain from a very early age.
- Reading aloud to a baby can
provide stimulation and the basic building blocks of speech and language
development.
- The stimulation your baby
receives by touching various types of fabrics, shape blocks and even
playing with water during bath time can help develop a baby’s motor skills
as well as stimulate their brains.
- Hugs, kisses and other positive
interactions can help stimulate your baby’s brain and provide emotional
development and support to make your baby feel secure.
- There is a fine line between
providing enough stimulation to your baby and too much. Soothing music and
baby massages are a great way to stimulate your baby’s brain why at the
same time calming them.
The best way to make
sure your baby is getting enough stimulation is to fill their environment with
books, colorful objects and pay toys of all different sizes and shapes.
