Crawling can exercise the strength of baby's whole body muscle activity, especially the coordination and flexibility of limb activity. It is a comprehensive fitness activity, which contributes to the development of audio-visual sense, spatial position sense and balance sense, and promotes the coordination of the body. It can also make blood circulation smooth and promote the growth and development of muscles and bones.
Benefit 2: enhance physical fitness
Crawling is the baby's first coordinated exercise, which can exercise the strength of chest muscles, back muscles, abdominal muscles and limb muscles; Moreover, crawling consumes a lot of energy, which helps the baby eat more, sleep well, gain weight and grow faster.
Benefit 3: Improve parent-child communication.
Crawling can improve the communication between mother and child. After the baby can crawl, he has gained more and more successful experiences under the guidance of his parents, and he can get many experiences such as excitement, success and failure in crawling. These experiences can enrich the baby's emotions. Research shows that babies who often climb are obviously more excited when they meet their parents than those who can't climb.
Benefit 4? Promote social development
After the baby can climb, he touches things that his parents forbid him to touch, and the possibility of doing things that his parents forbid him to do is greatly increased, which objectively increases the chances of emotional interaction between parents and children. At the same time, the baby will crawl, making parents aware of the baby's own initiative, making parents start to demand children with certain norms and begin to express dissatisfaction with the baby's irregular behavior. These changes further promote the development of infants' social emotions.
Benefit 5: Promote brain development and prevent mental retardation.
Crawling requires close cooperation between cerebellum and cerebellum. More crawling can enrich the neural connection between cerebellum and promote the growth of brain. From the initial crawling reflection, through the intermediate links such as looking up, turning over, rolling and crawling, the crawling action finally develops into a real crawling, which requires many times of study and practice. Every study and practice is a mobilization and stimulation of the brain's enthusiasm. Therefore, learning to crawl is actually an intensive training for the function of the cranial nerve system, which plays an irreplaceable special role in the development of the brain.
