Sensitivity to co-ordination of movement

新生兒因為神經系統未成熟,動作是不協調及隨機的而且大多數是反射動作。因為反射動作不受大腦皮質所控制…… 出生後的7-12個月,嬰兒的動作發展主要是,爬、滾動、坐及手足並用。而這些動作發展需要視覺、四肢及神經系統的成熟發展及協調才能完成。 而嬰幼兒學習/練習一個動作是為了下一個動作做準備,而動作的發展是為了讓BB有更多的機會可以向外探索,也有更多能力可以操作環境而學習(As what Montessori emphasis “Intelligence and The Hand” Absorbent Mind) Movement development is very important to the infant & young children.

Using both hands (左右手一起用!)

大概5至6個月BB已經有捉夠的力量抓握玩具,只要看到喜歡的物件又或者是新的物件BB就會用力地抓住,也會用舌頭舔甚至會放進口「品嚐」,這也是學習的一種。 所以在安全的大前提下可讓BB隨意抓物及讓他們把東西放進口或用舌頭舔,別剝奪他們學習的機會啊。 曾經看過一些有關腦的學說,大家也知道左腦控制右身動作而右腦是控制左邊的身體。我想若果左右手一起用的話可能刺激兩邊腦學習。讓BB可以嘗試比較兩手所握著的物件,平衡兩邊的力量,視覺及手眼協調也應該有幫助。 反正兩歲前BB都未發展慣用手(dominant hand),所以我會間中讓Abbie左右手抓不同的物件(可能一件玩具會發聲、另一件玩具顏色會較吸引),最終,Abbie會兩邊手看了看(數秒),便會掉下其中一個玩具,專心Explore一件玩具。大概可能BB每次接收訊息是有Quota的,就像初生的嬰孩他們會閉上眼睛專心吸吮牛奶吧! 大家不妨可以試試: 讓BB兩手抓握玩具 讓BB把一件玩具由一隻手轉移另一隻手   Abbie tries to hold the toys in both hands! And then as you see in the pictures, she loves the “pink dougnut” and let go the rattle!  Try to let your … Continue reading
