Resumption Is Here Again!!
Prioritize everything that concerns your child's wellbeing. Get them new school materials if the old ones are wornout. Wash the old ones if they are still useable. Undergo a general body checkup on your kids before resumption. Get them nutritious foods especially fruits and vegetables. Reduce the intake of junks and more of water consumption. Drop them at school on time daily and pick them up on time as well. Keep encouraging them each day. Check their school work/activities and communicate to the school politely if there's any complaint or observation. Avoid ridiculing your child's teacher or school, they're your child's next home/guardians. Always be kind with your words. Most importantly, pay their school fees on time. Don't wait till fee drives after series of reminders. You don't have to be reminded of their fees if you prioritize them. Always pray over your children and provide all the support needed to help them improve better and higher.

Finally, daddy and mummy, please mind your ACTIONS Infront of them. Avoid quarrel, fight, malice, even bedroom activities in their present as they will/may likely share with their teachers, friends and even neighbours. Thanks!!

Let's dialogue on "priorities"
Priority means what you treat as important or your preference at a time. Looking at this individually, we all have what seems important to us per time. Things people priorities can be;
✓Dressing (hairs, clothes, shoes, accessories etc)
✓Food
✓Home appliances/furnitures
✓ Electronics
✓Car/motories
✓Buildings/Structures
✓Sex
✓Gambling
✓Smoking/Drinking
✓Business
✓Education
✓Health
✓Investment etc
Moreover, what you value tells more about you. It's also can make or mar you in future. So, ask yourself, what are my preferences in life? Reason why some persons or your friends are making positive waves is because of what they prioritize. If you are a foodie, s*x addict, smoker, drunkard and a gambler you can't be like or compare yourself with an investor, Visioner, and business tycoon.

Furthermore, if you see any successful individual, don't envy or jealous him/her, you can't stand the challenges they've being through before attending greater height.
If you dream big, you will achieve big by God's special grace and if you dream small, expect little or no result. So, drop those things that are irrelevant and pursue things that will add value to you generally. If you build on wealth, you'll live a wealthy life tomorrow. So, Prioritize well!!

LETS LOOK AT "THE COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT STAGE " IN CHILDREN.

Cognitive development means how children think, explore and figure things out. It is the development of knowledge, skills, problem solving and dispositions, which help children to think about and understand the world around them. Brain development is part of cognitive development.

As a parent, it is important to foster your child's cognitive development as soon as he/she is born because doing so provides the foundation for your child's success in school and later in life. This stage of development determines how well a child does in school. For example, research shows that children who can distinguish sounds at six months of age are better at acquiring the skills for learning to read at four and five years of age.

To promote your child's cognitive development, it is important that you actively engage in quality interactions on a daily basis. Examples include:

✓Talking with your baby and naming commonly used objects.
✓Letting your baby explore toys and move about.
✓Singing and reading to your baby.
✓Exposing your toddler to books and puzzles.
✓Expanding on your child's interests in specific learning activities. For example, drawing, building blocks, dancing, singing etc

Another way that you can foster your child's cognitive development is to provide him/her with choices and prompt him/her to make thoughtful decisions. You should also allow your child to explore different ways of solving problems. While you may want to provide some gentle guidance and encouragement, allow your child some time to figure out things, like a new puzzle. This may require some patience on your part, but it will ultimately help him/her to learn.

In Summary, Developing the mental reasoning of a child is mostly important before engaging the child into writing and reading. When the brain is developed and the child understands simple instructions, reading and writing will be achieved without much stress. So, parents and educators should firstly nurture the cognitive development of a child before anything else. Always engage your child in simple task, let him/her attempt it before assisting. Take them to explore the environs, run simple errands, play educational games and interact with them often.

Hope this helps?

Let me take you through child's Physical Development process:

Physical development refers to the growth and refinement of a child's physical abilities, including gross motor skills and fine motor skills (large and small muscle movement).

What are Gross Motor Skills? These are large muscles movement demonstrate by a child after birth such as walking, running, jumping, and balancing.
Also, Fine Motor Skills are small muscle movement a child performs such like grasping, manipulating objects, and hand-eye coordination.

Therefore at Infant (0-1 year) a child develops basic reflexes and motor skills, such as lifting the head, rolling over and crawling. At toddlerhood (1-3 years) a child begins to master motor skills like walking and running, and fine motor skills like grasping and manipulating objects. Then, at Early Childhood (4-6 years) a child refines gross motor skills, such as throwing and catching, and developing fine motor skills, such as drawing and using utensils. At Middle Childhood (7-12 years) a child Continues to refine gross and fine motor skills, with increased coordination and control.

Importantly, understanding these stages of development in children will help you know what to expect from your child at each stage of life and where to apply help where needed.

Moreso, there are factors that can influence a child's physical development process. These are👇
✓Genetics factor: This include Inherited traits and abilities.
✓Environmental factor: Having access to opportunities for physical activity and play.
✓Nutrition: The quality of food given to a child can help in development process. So, adequate nutritious meal is recommended to support growth and development.
✓Health: The overall health and well-being of a child matters so much in a child's physical development process.

In conclusion, understanding physical development process in children will help parents and caregivers to provide supportive environments and opportunities for children to grow and thrive.
