Is early education really useful?
Early education can promote brain development. Some parents worry that early education for their children will damage their brains. In fact, this kind of worry is unnecessary. Some researchers use the brain and biochemical changes of animals; Facts show that adequate environmental stimulation and learning opportunities in the early stage will not only damage the development of the brain, but also promote the development of the brain.
Experts say that infancy is the fastest developing period of children's nervous system and the most critical period for developing various potentials, and it is indeed a good opportunity for education.
According to the theory of sensitive period and brain development, the sensitive period of human information and ability development is concentrated in the first few years of life. This period is a unique and important development stage in human life, an opportunity window for children's development and the best opportunity for babies to gain wisdom.
Before the age of 3, the brain developed normally and fastest, and the brain weighed 370g at birth. After that, the brain weight increased the fastest in the first year, which was twice that at birth at 6 months, accounting for 50% of the adult brain weight, while the child's weight would not reach 50% of the adult until 10 years old. It can be seen that the brain development greatly exceeds the speed of physical development.
Brain science research found that in the first three years of life, the development of baby's brain advanced by leaps and bounds. Because the focus of early education for 0-3-year-old infants is to develop sensory perception, listen more, see more, touch more and try more, it is necessary to pay special attention to early education for 0-3-year-old infants in order to give full play to the maximum potential of the human brain. Therefore, early education is really necessary and the method is not difficult. As long as we follow the scientific laws, we will certainly be able to educate healthy and lively children.
