NUTRITION and stimulation was instrumental in the development of baby's growth. This relates closely to the development of the brain that affects the child's intelligence. Based on these reasons, nutrition and stimulation in two years should be given early in life to a child's brain can grow and develop optimally.
Intelligence is strongly influenced by the stimulation the child receives in the early years of his life, especially the first two years of what we often call the golden years. Stimulating the right, both in types and frequency, will train the child's senses and will affect his intelligence.
Meanwhile, the most important nutrients that your baby needs for growth and brain development in the first two years of age is breast milk. Besides containing all the nutrients your baby needs, appropriate nursing process is also a stimulant of growth and brain development is perfect for babies.
Once the baby out immediately placed in the arms of his mother and give milk for 30 minutes. If the first 30 minutes are not directly given breast milk, breastfeeding capacity will drop to 50 percent. Exclusive breastfeeding able to be granted until the age of 18 months. But do not forget, not only breast milk enough, give all the nutrition and stimulation.
Brain function depends on the number of brain cells and branches. Number of neurotransmitters or substances that activate the synapse (connection between nerve cells), and the quality of myelin or nerve sheath cells.
Myelin consists of iron, fat, and cholesterol. There is also a cell membrane composed of DHA, glycoprotein and the like. The synapse, when stimulated will multiply and will disappear spontaneously when not in use. So we do not have much time to stimulate the child.
After a period of exclusive breastfeeding is over, an additional intake of nutrients for brain development can be obtained from milk-rich supplementary food nutrients derived from animal protein sources and vegetables. While stimulation, can be done by playing with the baby.
How do we give stimulation in baby is a way to invite them to interact and play for 20-30 minutes, does not interfere with other activities. That is not to do while watching television and other forms of activity. Also, do not force the invite to play based on their parents' will but follow willingness of baby.
Stimulation of the child handed goal to give attention and emotional closeness. To get kids attention and closeness can be done by way of showing feelings of pleasure playing with him and get his attention at the time was playing.
Not only that, through the stimulation can be done to establish effective communication in both directions. Even stimulate expression of the child, feelings and ideas and the way they think logically.
Stimulation of action is sometimes necessary to be implemented by way of "disruptive" baby, so he wants to interact. And when baby are afraid of something, do not force him to be brave. How, have you give nutrition and stimulation in baby?
