我如何幫助小孩發展增進動作能力

星期三, 10月 12th, 2011 3:41 pm | By Stephanie Woo

在公園裡被放任的Brooke和Mackenzie會爬上長椅或別人的嬰兒車。她們也喜歡一邊順著長椅或嬰兒車走,一邊一起玩。有時候母親們會問我,爲什麽B和M這麽厲害,只有9個月就已經可以扶著東西走路了呢?

那就請恕我直説了哦!原因只有1個:每次都被放在高椅,嬰兒車,學步車裡的寶寶基本上就是缺乏練習!要讓寶寶練習運動機能的話,可以考慮以下的蒙特梭利設置。要準備的物品包括寬寬的地上床墊,動作墊,鏡子,還有矮櫃。

行動墊

要放哪裡都可以,不過一定要放在一個固定的地方,直到寶寶開始爬爲止。這將會是寶寶醒著的時候用來趴的地方。把他們放在這裡後,就讓他們自己自由發揮,別和他們説話還是玩耍。練習時間可以隨著他們的年齡增長逐漸延長。

行動墊可以是:

  • 剪成兩片的泡棉
  • 折疊的毯子或被子,下面放一片防滑墊
  • 用布蓋著的地毯
  • 厚厚的瑜伽墊

墊子有緩衝用途,又可以預防孩子太過大力地把頭撞在地上。雖説如此,它也必須夠穩固。孩子往下推的時候,還是會需要一點阻力。他們在墊上睡着的話,趕緊把他們移到床上,不要讓他們習慣睡在墊上。我們必須讓他們了解到,一個地方和它的功能是有連接的。睡覺的地方就是睡覺的地方,而運動的地方就是運動的地方。請點這兒閲讀更多。

鏡子

把一面全身鏡側身放在墊的邊緣的話可以協助孩子們發展他們的認知能力,也可以讓他們看到自己在做什麽。起初,他們可能會以爲鏡子裡有其他人。不過久而久之,他們就會開始明白其實那是他們的映像。這一刻值得期待哦!請觀看5個月大的Brooke在鏡子裡玩耍的視頻。

7個月大的Brooke和Mackenzie醒著時,差不多70%的時間會在床墊上探索他們的周圍。這也會對於訓練他們的精細/ 粗略運動技能有幫助。鏡子在他們的後面。

 

矮櫃

附近也可以放一個矮櫃,把玩具都擺在上面。在他們還沒開始把自己拉起來之前,您可以先用一個木制的鞋櫃。無論如何,找來的架子一定要堅固,因爲當他們開始把自己拉起來的時候,將會很喜歡抓著這個架子拉。

我們10個月大寶寶們的玩具架。7個月大的寶寶只需要4,5樣東西。更小的寶寶2,3樣就夠了。雖然寶寶不會自已整理東西,他們會渴望您在家裡為他們製造的秩序,所以架子上的東西一定要放得整齊。

選東西放在架子上的時候,要記得寶寶很容易受到過度刺激。因此,東西只要適合寶寶的年齡就好,不需要給他們太多東西。一切都準備好之後,就等著看吧!寶寶會一點一點地移動到矮櫃去,自己拿他們想玩的玩具。再次強調:雖然寶寶不會自已整理東西,他們會渴望您在家裡為他們創造的秩序,所以記得一定要讓架子上的東西保持整齊哦!每週更換不同的玩具的話會有助於保持他們的興趣,提升注意力。

  1. I know this is a super old post, but maybe you can share a thought. My son has been free to move most of the day, RIE style, and slept on a floor bed since the end of co-sleeping at 9 months. I have and still do very much limit car/stroller/carrier time.

    Anyway, he’s 13 months now, and only just cruising. Why did it take him so long? I’ve had basic trust in his development, and yet it took him 10 months to start crawling, and 13 months to start cruising. It’s been hard to talk about the benefits of Montessori and RIE parenting to people when he’s taken longer than most to reach his gross motor skills milestones. And social milestones, too. He still doesn’t point or wave…

    Do you have any ideas how I could further encourage him?

  2. Hi, where did you buy that low shelf? It’s really hard to find a low and sturdy shelf!

  3. I’m just discovering Montessori now, as my second child is 16 months. I’ve read many if your posts in the last couple of days with interest, thank you for sharing with us. This is the only one that has got me questioning the content. All children will reach milestones in their own time. I feel sorry for the Anna who commented above. There was nothing wrong with her child. Sometimes providing stimulation doesn’t guarantee results. My first was stationary til 9months but cruising at ten and we expected independent walking by their birthday. She was a week short of 18months before it happened. At seven months, my second would not have spent much time on a tummy mat as he was already crawling. However, he has only just started toddling.
