During the first years of life, kids obtain information from their surroundings and manage to preserve it.
Your child is more capable than you think and can start to learn these essential things so they can easily master it in adulthood.
#1 Swimming
Physical activities help us live stronger and happier. But what makes swimming unique is that, aside from being a skill that could save your child’s life, it will also help them develop their coordination better while strengthening their limbs.
#2 Cooking
Cooking with your children allows them to improve their relationship with healthy meals. Allowing them to help or observe as you prepare food can make them more careful when eating. They will also less likely to eat junk food. In addition, they will explore every ingredient with their senses while learning the importance of following instructions.
#3 A second language
Children who learn a second language tend to have a better memory, adapt more quickly to change, and have a better understanding of language. Scientists from the Rotman Research Institute have also proven that speaking two or more languages can help delay the onset of Alzheimer’s.
#4 Cleaning
Hygiene and order are crucial for everyone. Aside from having a healthy life, it also helps to make mental processes more organized and structured. In some Asian countries, cleaning one’s own classroom is a part of their education.
#5 Playing an instrument
A study published in the Journal of Neuroscience showed that learning to play an instrument at a young age helps improve auditory skills and delay the deterioration of brain functions that are related to aging.
Playing an instrument activates several brain systems, including perception, auditory, and motor. Children will also have a better ability to express themselves when they become an adult.
#6 Communicating their feelings
Teaching children at an early age how to identify feelings, accept and communicate them will help them make better decisions. It will also allow them to react properly in complex circumstances.
#7 Sense of direction
It is good for a child’s brain to develop a sense of direction as this will help them behave properly wherever they go. Planning routes can become easier and it can also help improve their decision-making process in the long run.
#8 Dancing
According to a study by researchers from Karlstad University, dancing improves performance in children with hyperactivity. In addition to letting them express their feelings through their body, it also improves motor skills, social skills, creativity and boosts self-esteem.
#9 Using money
One of the important things a child needs to learn is that money is a tool and not a reward. They need to know how to spend it wisely so they wouldn’t make reckless decisions later in life.
#10 Relaxing
Life can sometimes be hard, so it is just right to take a break from time to time. Children need to study hard for their exams and difficult subjects but it is also important for them to relax and have some fun with their friends and family members.
