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 Monday. These ideas come from scholarly sources to personal interviews, from the internet to periodicals to books. “AUDITORY” DEVELOPMENTAL SKILL DEFINITION: distinguishing similarities and differences between sounds, integrating hearing with the act of listening, remembering the order of sounds, learning verbal communication. THE ‘CRITICAL WINDOW’ during which the circuits of the brain are being most heavily wired for the “AUDITORY” sense is from prenatal. The more opportunity children have for positive “Auditory” (sound) experiences during this critical period, the more efficiently their brains will work over the long run. Some general AUDITORY tidbits: * BABY CAN HEAR even in the womb. * KNOW THAT “hearing” is different from “the act of listening.” You “hear” a fire engine, and you “listen” when having a conversation. * LISTENING, among the range of auditory skills to learn, is sequential and involves learning to remember what has been heard, in the order in which it was heard. * SUPPORT Baby’s ability to distinguish similarities and differences between sounds in early listening by having dreamy, easy-listening, rhythmic music in the background of your day. Next week – “Auditory,” Pt. 3 Comments to msmarm@roadrunner.com
