Why crawling is such an important miles?/為什麼爬行是個很重要的里程碑?

7-9 months crawling

You probably heard someone said crawling is good for babies. But do you know why?

Crawling is a great activity to stimulate the connection of our left and right brain.
 
Now you probably have another question about why it is important?
 
The left-side brain controls the right-side body movements, and vice versa. Therefore, in order to have great coordination, the left brain and right brain need to work together very well. Activities that require coordination…such as going up/down stairs, jumping, riding a bike, and etc. And of course, different kinds of sports also require high coordination.
 
Other than movements, what other benefits?
 
Our brain controls not only movements but also emotional regulation.
 
Our left brain is responsible for communication and language, and our right brain is responsible for emotion and facial recognition. Emotional regulation skills and being express how you feel, being understand you hurt someone’s feeling…. that requires whole brain to function…. not just for motor skills, also emotional regulation.

相信你一定聽過有人說:「讓寶寶多爬,爬對寶寶很好。」

你知道為什麼嗎?

爬行是非常刺激左大腦和右大腦的連結的。
 
你是不是又有個問題:為什麼刺激兩邊大腦連結是好的呢?
 
我們的左邊大腦控制身體右半邊的動作,而右大腦是控制身體左半邊的動作。
 
動作協調度是靠大腦左右邊有很好的默契,才能夠控制好的。
 
在未來有哪些是需要動作協調的東西呢?像是走路,跳躍,到未來的騎腳踏車和不同的運動,都是需要協調度的。
 
那除了動作方面,還有哪些好處呢?
 
大腦除了控制動作以外,還有情緒跟與表達,等等。
 
左大腦還掌管溝通和語言,而右大腦掌管情緒和表情辨識(facial recognition)。
擁有好的情緒管理/調節是要有能力去理解對方的感覺跟知道如何表達自己的情緒,這都是需要左右大腦合作無間出來的結果。
 
這兩個好處是我個人覺得最酷的,影片還有提到更多的好處,請看影片囉!
