Development of Intelligence in Children
Manage episode 274206227 series 2578255
The view that we are born with a certain level of fixed intelligence is outdated. The environment plays a role in the way children are nurtured and it contributes to their development of intelligence. Children develop on their existing intelligence through numerous factors in their environment namely the positive relationship with their primary caregiver, opportunities to explore, play, learn and rehearse. Perhaps the way to look at it is that our intelligence is like a seed that is implanted in us and how that seed of intelligence is fed, watered and nurtured determines how well the intelligence grows. Who we are as adults is shaped by our childhood experiences and attachments; this has to include our intelligence too!
