5-year-old baby's intellectual development

During the process of breastfeeding their babies, mothers pay great attention to the intellectual development of their babies. Mothers can observe carefully and pay attention to the living conditions of a five-year-old baby when taking care of him. He must maintain adequate sleep. Adequate sleep can allow the brain to get a good rest. Rest is good for intellectual development and bone growth. Let’s explore the intellectual development of a five-year-old baby!

1. (1) Gross motor skills: Able to squat and pick up objects by holding onto tables and chairs; able to stand for a short period of time without adult support.

(2) Fine movements: Able to open the wrapping paper of building blocks.

(3) Adaptability: Can place building blocks in containers such as cardboard boxes; tries to push a toy car.

(4) Language: Ability to produce individual sounds, not unconsciously.

(5) Social: Imitate adults and take pictures of stuffed dolls; have a certain sense of "no".

1. Genetics

A baby's intelligence level is largely influenced by his parents. In addition, if local people get married, the IQ level of their offspring is about 102, and the IQ level of their offspring if they are couples from other provinces is about 109. If the man and woman are close relatives, the risk of low IQ in their offspring will increase.

2. Breast milk

Taurine in breast milk is a nutrient that can accelerate the division and regeneration of brain cells. The content in cow's milk is only one-tenth of that in breast milk. It can also accelerate the differentiation of nerve cells and help form nerve nodes. A survey shows that the IQ difference between breastfed and non-breastfed babies is about 3 to 10 points, which means that breastfed babies have higher IQs.

3. Diet

Some babies are partial to meat or eat too much, which will lower their intelligence level. Some babies don’t like to eat breakfast, which will affect their intelligence over time because the sugars, vitamins and proteins needed for the brain are not replenished.

4. Weight

Some babies weigh more than 20% more than their peers. Such babies have relatively low listening, speaking, reading and writing abilities because the excess fat in the body flows into the brain, which is not conducive to the growth of nerve cells and the differentiation of nerve fibers. Some babies are underweight due to illness or picky eating, and their intellectual condition is not optimistic. Nowadays, many babies have irregular meals and prefer snacks, which eventually leads to malnutrition. Correcting bad eating habits should start with breakfast, because the nutrients in breakfast have the highest absorption rate and help store and convert energy.
