In development of the child by the nature certain stages which exception can break an improvement chain are put. Many modern parents, in a pursuit of fashion, seek to teach the children to go, read, write as soon as possible. And such skill as "crawling" is considered optional.
Creeping, the kid gains those skills which will influence his general development subsequently. Rearranging legs and handles, the child not only learns to keep balance and improves coordination of movements, but also develops fine motor skills that contributes also to the speech development. But many children do not want to creep. What should I do? To teach the child to creep, the patience and desire is necessary.
The baby does the first attempts to move independently already at week age and if in time to start development of these skills, process of training will be very fruitful.
First of all, it is necessary to spread as often as possible the child on a tummy. It is better to do it on a firm, flat surface. Having learned to hold a head and to lean on handles, the kid himself will do attempts to make a start legs. Having held up the palm under the Piglet, parents can help him. During such exercise, muscles of legs, backs develop. At the age of 5 months some children already independently can move on a stomach, and some and on all fours. It is possible to accelerate process of training in crawling by means of simple exercises. For example, to raise the kid, holding in a stomach and to move its handles and legs. Or to suggest the kid to undertake some subject, and then, slowly moving it on a plain surface, to force the child to move forward kind of, making a start legs. In the western techniques it is offered to use special "track": the small sheet of plywood fitted by soft material (foam rubber or foam rubber) and an oilcloth with boards on each side which needs to be put with a small bias. Length of such "track" can be from 2 to 4 meters. On technology of its application the child learns to creep at first on an inclined surface from top to down, and then on the contrary. And, of course, the child has to have an incentive. Let around there will be several favourite toys for which it will reach. And participation of mom or dad not only will entertain the baby, but also will help to show visually how it is necessary to move. Undoubtedly to teach the child to creep hardly, but it is extremely important for his further development.
