Here are some magical handy tips parents can try to boost their baby's brain development from 0 to 3 months:
Mommy must schedule reading time for the baby using soft picture books with small words. Also keep talking during bath time, change or feed with strong eye contact. But keep shuffling the books/topics else the baby gets bored and becomes fussy.
It is wonderful to improve focus by having a mobile (Merry-go-round) with high-contrast patterns hanging above the changing table, floor gym, or the crib.
Bright colours, moving toys, touch, and react toys are excellent props to stimulate your baby’s developing senses and sensory development. You can also respond in certain ways to your baby’s touch or sound to make him/her practice.
Here are some magical handy tips parents can try to boost their baby's brain development from 3 to 6 months:
It is an appropriate time to familiarise your baby with small and often used words like mama, dada, good-bye, etc. So he/she can listen and relate like a car or a bird.
Bring the baby together with blocks and stacking toys to expand his/her creativity and understanding as well as focus.
You can place an unbreakable mirror beside the baby during their play or massage time where they can look, wonder, and explore more about themself.
Here are some magical handy tips parents can try to boost their baby's brain development from 6 to 12 months:
You can fill the toy box with varied materials like wooden blocks, metal toys, and plastic blocks to make the baby bang them on hard surfaces to understand the fact that different things make different sounds.
Let your baby's little brain flourish by experiencing the cause and result theory. For instance, if he/she makes a block tower and bumps into that it falls and makes noise.
Introduce the baby with more words while reading like “Red car,” “Blue bird” and “Green tree” so he/she can make a difference.
Motivate the baby to do age-appropriate activities for happy growth with playing, singing, and talking- Have Fun!
Besides doing these activities with your baby to promote their brain development, you should also be mindful of the following tips:
If your baby is sad, upset, or even hungry, it is important for you to respond with some comfort. Apart from the above-mentioned three emotions, babies can also reach out to you in numerous ways. Making sounds or smiling are just some of the ways they use to grab your attention.
Letting your child explore their environment, both inside as well as out is extremely crucial. Playing helps babies to learn numerous things at a faster pace. Considering the fact that you are your baby’s first friend and a playmate, it will be easier for your child to respond to your better.
It is important for your baby to get regular check-ups done by a pediatrician. Vaccinations can also help your baby from contracting dangerous diseases. You can consider talking to your baby’s doctor regarding what aspects to consider next.
You can learn more about the community programs or services that are available in your region or neighbourhood. Many communities have programs to help young families bond with each other as well as interact.
If you are a working mother or cannot spend time with your child for some time, make sure to leave your child with a trustworthy caregiver. In fact, it is usually best to go for someone who will respond to a child’s emotional needs just like how you do. This will allow your child to learn as well as grow even in your absence.
