How to improve children's memory?

When people are young, they are still children. At that time, people need correct guidance to help them establish more correct concepts and build confidence. Therefore, if we find that the child’s memory is not good when he is young, don’t put too much pressure on the child. We can guide them in a positive way to achieve the effect of enhancing memory. The following will explain in detail how to increase children’s memory.

Positive suggestion method

The reason why many people have poor memory is that they lack confidence in their memory. When faced with material to remember, these people often think: "How difficult it is to remember!", "How can I remember so much?" This kind of thinking is the biggest obstacle to improving memory.

American psychologist Hu Dehua said: "Anyone with a good memory must have confidence in his memory." To build up this confidence, you must give yourself positive suggestions and often say to yourself: "I will definitely remember it!" When you lack confidence in whether you can remember, you can also recall your past successful experiences, such as "I was ranked in the top five in all subjects in the class" and "I could recite many Tang poems when I was a few years old." When these good memories from the past reappear, they will strengthen your confidence that you can remember them.

Elaborate recall

In our daily study and life, we memorize a lot of things, but rarely recall them. The imbalance between recognition and recall makes our memory very vague.

Recalling frequently and as detailed as possible is a good way to exercise your memory. For example: Think about what you were doing an hour ago? Where were you? Who were you with? What did you talk about? What did that person look like? How would you describe his appearance to others?

Think back to a movie you watched recently. Who were the main characters in the movie? What happened? What did they do? How did it end? Try to recall every scene in the movie.

Think back to your childhood friends. What did you do together? Can you still remember their names? Where did they live?

Strange association method

Association is a way to facilitate memory. For example, we encounter a new word: 咩. The character is composed of "kou" (mouth) and "yang" (sheep). "kou" means mouth. In addition to eating grass, a sheep's mouth can also bark. Now you know the meaning and pronunciation of the word "咩..." which means how a sheep makes a sound. Mea, the sound of a sheep, pronounced as MIE.

Strange association is a kind of association that artificially forms certain strange associations in the mind about the things to be remembered, thereby helping memory. For example, if we want to remember the word pair "dog-bicycle", we can imagine "a dog riding a bicycle on the road". Someone had to remember ten words: "train, river, kite, cannon, pear, yellow dog, lightning, street, pine tree, sorghum". He formed the following strange associations: a person boarded a high-speed train, the train was running on the river, a big kite was floating on the river, a cannon was mounted on the kite, a big kite was shot out from the barrel of the cannon, a landing cannon was mounted on the kite, a pear was shot out from the barrel of the cannon, the pear hit the mouth of a yellow dog, the yellow dog passed by the street quickly like a flash of lightning, climbed up an old pine tree, and bit a sorghum growing on the old pine tree.

Time-limited intensive memorization

Reciting some numbers, names, words, etc. within a specified time can exercise your ability to memorize. for example:

In 3 minutes, recite the 30 decimal digits of Pi (): 3.141592653589793238462643383279;

Recite ten unfamiliar names within 2 minutes;

Recite ten new foreign words in 10 minutes.

Press for 5 seconds each time, suddenly increase the pressure, and then remove your thumbs. After pressing 5 to 10 times, you will feel clear-headed.
