Developing the Children's Cognitive Abilities from Early Stages

Cognitive skills are an important part of a human’s development and are one of the most important aspects of early childhood education. They are the abilities to think, reason, and plan. Those skills also help children to understand, remember and process information as they grow up.

The development of cognitive skills starts from birth and continues throughout a child's life. Children develop these skills through their interactions with other children, their environment and other people as well.

The study of cognitive abilities throughout the years has been an area of interest for psychologists and educators. From those studies emerged many ideas and facts that helped parents through their interaction with their children, as well as new toys and play ideas.

In order to support children's cognitive skills development, parents need to provide opportunities for their children to explore their surroundings as well as guide them to do things on their own; that they may not be able to do yet, such as putting their clothes or shoes on.

But, in many types of research and leading universities, they have found that the most productive and beneficial method of cognitive skills development (starting from birth) is through visual stimulation high contrast cards.

Visual stimulation

From infancy to adulthood, humans learn, and develop through observation, experience, education, and curiosity.

As soon as babies are born they start to learn, they learn how to see. Since the eyes are the window to the brain, they start learning through images and surroundings. Learning from infancy is a form of early education and the first step towards developing their skills, nevertheless, cognitive skills.

What are cognitive skills?

Cognitive skills are basically the skills the brain uses to learn, read, concentrate, think and even reason. Then they take all that has been learned to save it in the brain as the knowledge that we use every day in our life. It is essential for children to develop their cognitive skills through a variety of experiences. Now in order to achieve healthy cognitive development, it is highly advised by experts to start early, in infancy. Some people might think it is too early, or it is too much for an infant, but it really isn’t.

Why high-contrast Cards?

After birth a baby’s vision is blurry and the eye muscles are not yet able to work ignorer control both eyes together. When a baby is shown a high contrast card like the one below, one would notice that a baby as old as two weeks will not be overwhelmed or stressed by looking. On the contrary, it is much easier to look at because there are not many details, yet the contrast image will aid the baby’s eyes to work together and concentrate on that simple picture. And this process is an important one to help, not only the vision, brain, and neurone connections, but also the development of cognitive abilities.

High contrast cards are a perfect tool, because of their lightweight, and they are easy to hold, even with your baby’s little fingers. It is also easy to concentrate on one image rather than many crowded ones.

Sensolern contrast cards are designed with particular specifications for each progress stage of every infant’s vision and brain development. And when we as parents, or caregivers, talk to the baby about the unique images we are enriching the knowledge bank in the baby’s brain for later use in life, school and work as well. We are encouraging speech as well as strengthening the bond between the baby and the parent. Which is the base for emotional stability for the baby that allows and predicate calmer and much advanced information input.

For example one of the beautiful cards of the 3-6 months collection, an abstract creative design of the family. How many stories and warm words could be used to express the very essence of the baby’s life while talking about family. Enriching the creative side of the personality by unleashing ideas and provoking imagination.

Educational values

Education simply means learning, and learning has a wide range of definition. We learn how to see, speak, understand and reason. And it is vital to start from the early years. Children go to kindergarten to learn through playing with other children and read stories and acquire knowledge from their surroundings. Babies initially learn through their eyes. They observe and learn The information is collected and saved for later in life.

Motor skills development

Motor development is a process of building and refining the skills that allow people to move their bodies. Motor skill development in children starts from birth and continues until the age of 18.

The development of motor skills starts with basic movements like crawling, rolling over and sitting up. Babies need to be taught how to do these movements by parents or caregivers because they cannot do them on their own. As babies grow, they develop more advanced motor skills such as jumping, kicking and climbing stairs. These more advanced motor skills require more coordination between the brain and muscles.

What are fine motor skills?

Fine motor skills are the small movements that we make with our hands, fingers and toes. Fine motor skills are a very important part of child development. They help in building their cognitive abilities and provide them with more opportunities for education and can be improved by playing games and doing crafts with your child. You can also try using materials that require fine motor skills such as coloured rice, play dough, clay or craft sticks to help them develop their fine motor skills better.

Sense of art

The sense of art is a complex cognitive skill that develops in babies from an early age. It is something that is not fully developed in babies but developed through education as they grow up. Babies from 3 months of age are able to distinguish limited colours and some shapes.

Babies can learn about art from their parents or caregivers. This can be done by talking to them while showing them pictures or books. The more exposure babies have to different forms of art, the better their understanding will be when they get older. Lina Sabbagh (talk) 19:12, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
