10 Easy Ways To Make Children Smarter

Article Category: Education

Controlled examination shows that aptitude is equally genetic and environmental. Intellect is also not fixed but can be increased because the brain develops new neurons and interconnections with stimulation.

A supportive situation fosters many aspects of intelligence. The following 10 easy ways to stimulate intelligence in children will provide an "enriched environment" for brain growth.

One: Love and Self-Esteem Improve Educational Performance

In a long series of experiments, Prescott Lecky, an American educational researcher, found a high association between low self-esteem and learning problems in children.

He correctly theorized that by raising a child's self-esteem, learning accomplishment would also improve.

His achievement stories include a poor speller who averaged 55% in spelling improved to 91% in six months, a Latin student who went from 30% to 84% after three encouraging conversations with a teacher, and a student considered to have no ability for English who enhanced over a semester to win the school's literary prize.

Two: Breast Fed Babies Are Smarter

Danish researchers found that mother's milk contained crucial micronutrients for brain development. In fact, the longer the child was breast fed, the more the brain was nourished. For case in point, infants breast fed for 9 months were smarter than infants only breast-fed for two months.

Three: Proper Nutrition Improve Health And Nerve Conduction

Diets high in sugar, Trans fatty acids, and salt decreased health in children. Junk food failed to provide sufficient iron for healthy brain development, resulting in poor nerve impulses. Children with nutritional deficiency also missed school more often because of illness and fell behind their peers.

Four: Proper Breakfast Improves Attention At School

Thirty years of research has shown a compelling correlation between breakfast and mental attentiveness. Children who had nutritious breakfasts had better memory. They also concentrated better and absorbed more information during class. Those who had no breakfast or poor breakfast were more irritable and distracted during class.

Five: Exercise Benefits Intelligence And Personality

Research conducted by the University of Illinois showed that fitter children performed better academically. Also the obvious physiological benefits of improved oxygen intake, blood flow, immune stimulus, and neural transmission, there was also a psychological and sociological component, too. Psychologically, fitter children showed superior self-esteem. Sociologically, those who participated in prepared sports displayed more self-confidence, more collaboration, and unplanned leadership.

Six: Musical Training Improves IQ Into Adulthood

Long-term study by the University of Toronto showed that organized music lessons benefited children all the way into adulthood. The longer the child studied music, the higher their IQs as adults. Music students also displayed better grades throughout their schooling.

Seven: Some Video Games Enhance Mental Acuity

Research by the University of Rochester found that certain video games improved sensory perception, strategic thinking, and planning ahead of time. The video games that created positive mental improvements had an educational element that improved motor skills and enhanced memory.

Eight: Mind Games Do More Than Entertain

Board games like chess, checkers, creative games like Lego and jigsaw puzzles, and brainteaser games like crosswords, cryptograms, riddles, and Sudoku improved intellect. Specifically, they stimulated better decision-making, smarter analytical thinking, and more accurate problem solving.

Nine: Reading Improves Both Creativity And Logic

Whether a child was read to at bedtime, or actively read their own books, silently or aloud, they displayed increased left and right brain intellectual growth. Both fiction and non-fiction books improved creative imagination and logical, sequential thinking.

Ten: Nurturing Curiosity Creates An Open, Absorbent Mind

Inquisitiveness, the urge to seek information, is important to improving intelligence in children. Conducting educational outings, teaching new skills, and supporting hobbies encouraged the improvement of curiosity.

These 10 ways of raising aptitude in children are easy to apply, sensible, and within the scope of parents and teachers. Investigation has exposed that they are highly successful in creating the environmental assistance children need to extend their brainpower.
