Recently, I received a message asking for help from a mother: My baby is over 2 years old and I have noticed some strange behavior. Do I need to correct it? For example: when seeing some small holes, holes, etc., he can\’t help but put his fingers in to explore; when he sees two ants on the ground carrying a grain of rice, the baby can squat on the ground for most of the day; at home, The baby would watch the goldfish swimming in the fish tank for more than half an hour… After reading this mother\’s message, I smiled and sent her a reply: Congratulations, your baby is very smart! The baby\’s seemingly \”weird and annoying\” behavior is exactly a sign of high intelligence! As the saying goes: Three years old looks old, seven years old looks old. Whether a baby is smart or not can often be seen at an early age. Babies with high IQs usually have these 4 \”annoying\” characteristics before the age of 3. How many of your babies have these? If you can win 3, you will definitely become an outstanding talent. The first characteristic: strong curiosity. I believe that parents with babies at home will encounter the following things: when they see a small puddle on the road, the baby will run over excitedly, step on and jump; when they see ants moving, they will squat and stare intently. I spent most of the day looking at it; I dismantled the toys at home; I dismantled the early childhood education machine, even the small screws on the stool, I had to unscrew them and take a look… Plato once said: \”The curious person is the door to knowledge.\” If the baby has these behaviors, it means that the child\’s curiosity has been turned on. Every behavior and movement of a child is a manifestation of a strong desire for knowledge about the world. This provides richer stimulation for the connections between your child\’s brain cells. If parents prevent their children from these behaviors at this time, this will directly kill the child\’s curiosity, desire to explore and interest in learning about the world in the cradle. Children aged 0 to 3 years old are the most curious. Faced with all kinds of strange questions and strange behaviors of children, what parents need to do is to explore with their children. This can not only retain children\’s curiosity, but also develop children\’s creativity and cultivate their interest in learning. Second characteristic: Lively and active, careful mothers will find that babies begin to like to dance with their hands and feet after the full moon. It’s true, children aged 0-3 are immobile all the time! Experienced mothers say that babies who are almost 2 years old keep asking for games as long as they are awake, and they like to run around and make trouble. For example, our two babies are like this. When they are one and a half years old, their little feet will run and their little hands will turn wherever they go, as if this is their \”treasure hunt.\” They will tear a roll of paper towels all over the floor when you are not paying attention; turn out all the clothes in the closet… For babies at this stage, we can play more games with the baby to promote the baby\’s thinking ability, such as: hide and seek , Who am I, passing game, little hand clapping, circle singing and other early education games. The third characteristic: Babies who love to imitate have a strong learning ability, and imitation begins as soon as they are born. The first is to imitate the parent\’s facial expressions and pronunciation, and then the imitation of body movements and words. The imitation of actions shows that the baby has realized that the actions imitated have a certain meaning, and his cognitive ability has also made leaps and bounds as a result. Imitation is part of baby learningThis is an important method and is also a manifestation of the baby\’s ability to communicate and interact with others normally. We can make good use of this characteristic of children as an educational method. Every baby is very eager to be able to speak and do things like the people he likes. For example: he likes to learn the tone and expression of his parents\’ speech; he likes to wear adults\’ clothes and shoes to walk around, and he likes to imitate his mother\’s way of tidying up his clothes. Folding quilts…At this time, if the adults encourage him with smiles and words of praise, the baby will continue to work hard. By imitating and learning these skills again and again, the baby gradually becomes independent. For babies aged 0 to 3 years old, the scope of interaction is still relatively limited, and parents and family members are his main imitation targets. Parents and family members must pay attention to their words and deeds and give their babies a good example to imitate. The fourth characteristic: Likes to repeat. Mothers often say that their babies are very annoying. After telling a short story countless times, they still ask to be told repeatedly and they never tire of it. This is a normal phenomenon and is the baby\’s learning process. Babies before the age of 3 like to repeat one thing very much, such as reading the same picture book, listening to a story repeatedly, listening to a children\’s song repeatedly, and playing the same game repeatedly, and they will not get bored for ten days and a half. Montessori said: \”Repeated practice is children\’s intellectual gymnastics.\” From stories that children listen to over and over again, they first absorb logic, then situations, and finally accurate concepts. When a child repeatedly touches and perceives the world around him, he will organize, classify, and summarize what he perceives, and then generate a new concept. Once a child masters a certain concept, he will generalize the concept and connect all concepts. 0-3 years old is a critical period that determines a child’s intelligence! From birth to 3 years old, 50% of the formation of children\’s intelligence and personality has been completed. In these three years, the child has an extraordinary ability to absorb. Whatever you teach him, he will learn. If parents neglect their children\’s education at this stage, they will lose the golden key to unlocking their children\’s intelligence.
