Play and Grow Smart-er Tips Nancy Pyne-Hapke, author of “Play and Grow Smart, A Guide Supporting Brain Development, Birth through Five,” has been giving tips to aid your child’s optimum skill development through proactive neuroscience-based activities every Sunday. These ideas come from scholarly sources to personal interviews, from the internet to periodicals to books. DEVELOPMENTAL Skill Definition, SOCIAL/EMOTIONAL: bonding, building relationships, appreciating differences, self-esteem, self-expression, responsibility, self-reliance, resourcefulness, curiosity, motivation, persistence, self-control. THE CRITICAL WINDOW during which the circuits of the brain are being most heavily wired for “SOCIAL/EMOTIONAL: EMPATHY, ENVY” development is about 2 years – 9 years. The more opportunity children have for positive social-emotional experiences during this critical period, the more efficiently their brains will work over the long run. Some Social/Emotional: EMPATHY, ENVY tidbits: Looking at NORMAL BRAIN DEVELOPMENT beginning around 2 years old, * TODDLER BEGINS playing somewhat interactively with other children, although socializing is by trial and error, and he plays alongside peers rather than with them. * BECOMING EVEN MORE self-centered, she feels that everyone thinks and feels the way she does. * SHARING TOYS and taking turns won’t develop until later. * HE’S VERY possessive, offering toys to other children but them wanting them back. Next week – “Social/Emotional: Empathy, Envy” Pt. 3 Comment to msmarm@roadrunner.com.
