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 weekly since 2010. These ideas come from scholarly sources to personal interviews, from the internet to periodicals to books. “CREATIVITY” involves imagination, ingenuity, invention/originality, creative thinking, dramatic/visual/musical arts. THE “CRITICAL WINDOW” during which the circuits of the brain are being most heavily wired for CREATIVITY is 1 – 4 years with lifelong expression. The more opportunity children have to experience healthy, positive and nurturing Creative experiences during this critical period, the more efficiently their brains will work over the long run. FORMS of creativity: 2- and 3-Dimensional ART, Written/Spoken LANGUAGE, MOVEMENT / MUSIC using the body, Imaginative-Pretending FANTASY. Some “Creativity: LANGUAGE” tidbits: * LANGUAGE expresses feelings and ideas through words, spoken and written, from Baby’s oohs and aahs to singing and fantasy play dialog and creative stories and games. * FROM 1 year …play sound games with Baby – repeat back the sounds he makes since his paying attention to sounds supports the breadth of later vocabulary. …as she will have learned component sounds of language by or before the time she walks, she doesn’t need “baby talk” any longer; talk to her with common words. * FROM 18 months …Toddler likes to hear make-believe stories with his name in them. …she enjoys talking on the phone (real or toy). Don’t expect logical conversation! …after talking about people and objects he sees in magazines, make a scrapbook by letting him choose pictures and glue sticking them into a DIY cardboard/heavy paper photo album.
