Easter is rapidly approaching. If you have young children you're probably going to see the Easter Bunny and get your photos taken. Or maybe you're going to a photographer to get photos taken with little chicks or bunnies. Or possibly even visit an Easter petting zoo.
Did you know that by allowing your child to handle a bunny or chick can actually end up making them smarter?
Yes, it can!
The more dendrites or brain cells your child can grow the smarter your child will become. One way to help your child grow more brain cells is by exposing them to learning opportunities.
We all process information through our senses (hear, see, smell, taste and touch). Our senses feed information to our brain. When children are young it's important to stimulate all of their senses. And one way to do that is to expose them to TACTILE (i.e. touching) opportunities. The more they can touch things, the more they can learn!
And the more they learn, the smarter they will become.
So let your kids touch those soft bunnies and feathery chicks. The more you let your child touch small animals you will end up making him a smarter child!
If you'd like more information on how all this works, we know a great book that we can recommend: Kidding Around Town.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kidding Around Town is based on research that shows early involvement and learning encourages dendrite development in the brain resulting in a smarter child. To assist in this development process Kidding Around Town provides local destinations and age-appropriate activities to help guide you with your outing adventures.
