"Your child will learn more in their first five years...
...than they will in five years of college"
Your Child’s Development
Your baby's brain doubles in weight in the first year due not to the growth in the number of brain cells but to the connections between them.
These connections only begin to form when your infant has to think about something. Contact with new sights, sounds, smells, tastes and touches make your infant think, and that's why stimulation is essential from birth.
Approximately one-third of a child’s intellectual skills will have been mastered by the time the child is six. Nearly fifty per cent of the child’s mental capacity will have developed between birth and the age of four, a further thirty percent between four and eight, and the remaining twenty per cent between eight and seventeen.
Development of your child is continuous, although at times your child's progress may seem very slow. The speed and ease of acquiring skills, however, is entirely individual so don't worry if your child is slower to develop in some areas than other children of the same age.
Your Childs Literacy is one of the most valuable skills your child will learn. Through stimulation and education, up to school age, your child's brain connections are forming at a far greater rate than they ever will.
Although you can influence the pace of your child's development by giving them the right stimulation at the right time, the stages of development occur in a strictly unchangeable sequence.
As parents we need to target these development stages with appropriate learning resources.
