Stimulating Brain Power in Children

Most of our children are smart and intelligent by birth! It is just that, they are not using their natural talents and skills. Most probably, they did not get an opportunity to develop their brain functions in a normal manner. Of late, brain development in small children is gaining immense prominence among educators and parents.

Your children are undergoing a number of mental and physical changes every day. Brain develops at a very rapid rate in short cycles of bursts. These changes are very critical and play an important role in the overall development of brain.

Developing very critical brain functions in your children seem to be far more important than any other activities. As you touch, sing lullabies, hold, hug, rock and sing to your children, you can expect their brain functions to improve in a remarkable manner. These simple actions will help your children develop highly critical network of brain cells, neurons and nerve fibers. How quickly and efficiently these network connections occur can significantly influence the rate of efficiency with which the brain acts and functions.

You should be aware of early brain development in your children. However, it is also important that you should not worry too much about it. What you need to do is to follow very simple methods and guidelines to make your children's brain smarter and efficient. Just remember that your children are actually born smart and intelligent. It is just that they are yet to go through that elusive "brain-nurturing" process. Your children are yet to learn a number of skills, techniques and process in their childhood. As a parent, you can give a boost to those processes. Brain boosting is an intricate process of transforming an already equipped brain into a full-pledged and efficiently working system.

An ability to provide varied experiences and invaluable brain building activities to children is the hallmark of an influential parent. You may wish to work hard to provide these experiences to your child to make them brain smart. All the best!

Thought for today:
"If children grew up according to early indications, we should have nothing but geniuses." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Hi Prabhat Good Message, Thank You, All The Best

Please provide books or articles for further reading. It is clear from articles that parents can play an active role in brain development. But article does not give any tools.

Dear Suhas Joshi,
Firstly, thanks a lot in taking interest in exploring new possibilities for your child.

As you rightly said, parents' active participation is required in brain development of children. There are many tools/techniques available. Unfortunately, tool itself is not enough to get the benefit. It requires to get the spirit of implementation of the techniques and being with children. This workshop "ISP: The Art of Parenting" is aimed at generating this spirit.

I would suggest you to find out if this workshop is being held in your city. If not, you can always join the online course. At least, attend an introduction and then make a choice.

You can check out the contacts page, else let me know which city you belong to, I will find out the relevant contacts for you.

Cheers
