Before the age of 3, infants and young children have a very important phenomenon, that is: forming an impression. Comparing the brain structure to an egg, the "old cortex" is similar to the yolk part and is formed six months after birth. The subconscious mind is stored in this part, which is the repository of memory. Protein's part is the "cardiac cortex" which grows gradually after birth, and it is people's conscious consciousness. In the first three years of life, or a little longer, the information that enters the brain is stored in the old cortex, so we call the education in this period "subconscious education". Later, when a new cortex is gradually formed, the information entering the brain is mainly stored in the new cortex. The education after that is called conscious education. However, if we compare the effects of subconscious and consciousness on people's quality of life, the effect of subconscious is more than 50 times stronger than that of consciousness! The function of the subconscious determines the quality of human thinking. Can you still say that education between the ages of 0 and 3 is not important? Babies don't write things down one by one as adults do, but leave difficult things intact in the "basic library" of their minds. In the baby's mind, there is no magical "computer" function in the adult's mind, and this subconscious will play a role for life. For example, as we all know, there is a book called Harvard Girl Liu Yiting. Liu Yiting was admitted to Harvard University at the age of 65,438+07. Liu Weihua (Yi Ting's mother) told me an unforgettable thing: when Liu Yiting was born eight months ago, Liu Weihua had to take the title exam and pass English. Liu Weihua, whose training was originally arranged by the unit and whose baby is still in infancy, can only be in. At that time, CCTV broadcasted Follow Me at 6: 30 every afternoon, and Liu Weihua was at home with her child in her arms. Therefore, adults have a purpose and a task to learn, while children are unconsciously passively accepted. But at the age of child 1 1/2, Liu Weihua got the title, but it was the child who gained the most. When Liu Yiting grew up and took part in English training, the teacher was surprised to find that the child's English ability reached an unusual level. Liu Yiting also said to his mother, "I think learning English is as easy as learning your own language." The reason is that during the subconscious education, an impression is formed in the brain. After the same type of information is input, it can form a connection, so it can produce several times the effect of adult learning ability. Memory can be exercised, but scientific research shows that; It should have sufficient material basis, especially choline, which promotes the synthesis of acetylcholine, which is an important neurotransmitter involved in the formation of memory, accelerates the transmission of information, makes people think actively, and helps to improve memory, which is more important for premature infants. According to the previous child development psychology, children's intellectual development is not affected by the external environment, but grows naturally with themselves. Later, many educational experts all over the world gradually discovered that this statement was wrong. In the past, the concept of IQ was based on a fixed concept of intelligence, which explained the constancy of intelligence instructions, or a repetition theory, which thought that the occurrence of individuals was repetitive and systematic, ignoring the importance of early education. But with the continuous progress of brain science, fewer and fewer people have this old idea. The intelligence guidance of infants is changeable. It is not an index to predict life. This is not the final decision. The change of intellectual guidance depends on the environment of children's future life, the educational environment provided for them and the role of their own non-intellectual factors (personality, will, temperament, etc.). ). It is still very important, that is, material nutrition. Europeans: "You can eat smarter." There is some truth in this statement. For example, about 75% of myelin in the brain comes from fat, especially long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, and myelin is the material basis for myelin digestion in brain cells. The material composition of cell membrane in cerebral cortex is composed of DNA. Babies need what we call essential fatty acids. We may be used to associating fat with excess fat at the waist, but this is obviously not the case. Modern nutrition tells us that the main nutrition of the brain is fat, that is, essential fatty acids. We noticed the proper proportion of DNA and ARA nutrition formula. What is the concept that can improve your baby's intelligence index by an average of 7 points? Children's intelligence is constantly developing, and the intelligence index in infancy can be increased by 7 points, which means that children will accelerate their development at more starting points. How significant this is! I will talk about a "tunnel effect". Who will go first when the train enters the tunnel? Motorcycle, of course. Who comes out first or the locomotive-because the train doesn't turn around in the tunnel. Children's intellectual development is such a "tunnel phenomenon". Today, when they are studying in key famous schools such as Peking University and Tsinghua, their intelligence is not revealed in universities, but they are already excellent in middle schools. But he didn't show up in middle school either. In primary school, teachers praised him as the best. But he didn't become smart in primary school. In kindergarten, he is excellent ... On the other hand, "students don't fall behind at the age of sixteen, but at the age of six." Imagine that in infancy, the average intelligence index is 7 points more, which means that he is in the position of locomotive from the beginning. Of course, he advanced into the tunnel, and he had to get out of it first. With good material nutrition, coupled with good spiritual nutrition, it is even more powerful, and he can take off. This kind of spiritual nutrition is scientific early education, which greatly enriches the baby's spiritual life within the range that the baby can bear physically and psychologically. Dr Glenn dormann once said, "The brain is built in this way. In the first six years of life, children absorb information at an amazing speed and hardly need to blow away dust. " Intellectual development is directly related to the composition of cerebral cortex, and DHA itself is the material component of cerebral cortex. Then, promoting brain development is not only an increase in quantity, but also a qualitative improvement. The famous Bates study tells us that in the first 18 months of the baby, there is a difference of seven points in the intelligence development index between the baby who eats DHA formula milk powder in an appropriate proportion and the baby who doesn't eat other DHA milk powder in an appropriate proportion, which is of great significance to the future intelligence development of the baby.
