Apparently Swim Kids Can Make Higher IQ

 Encourage your child to swim. Though still in its infancy, no problem. In fact, the newborn would not be drowned if dicemplungkan into the water. Results of the study in Melbourne, Australia, showed a statistically IQ of children who are taught to swim as a baby higher than children who are not taught to swim or be taught to swim after age 5 years.
Children's IQ was measured when they were aged 10 years. Not only that, the growth of physical, emotional, social and even better. Other studies have shown that babies are taught to swim more easily than adults because babies have never had the X factor, such danger. Is not the baby does not understand the danger?
After all, babies love the water so that he would like to be invited to swim. Well, this makes it so much easier to learn to swim. In addition, newborn babies until the age of 3 months can be directly nyemplung into the water without fear of drowning because at that age he has a lot of usefulness stepping reflex to swim.

"Stepping reflex is a reflex that accompanies one of the babies as well as the grasping reflex and reflex walking," explains Dr. Karel staa of Pondok Indah Hospital, a former record-holding swimmer 200 meters breaststroke in 1960-1962.

So, if we put the baby under 3 months of age in the water, it will automatically move their legs like a dog paddle so it did not sink. That said, at the age under 3 months of your baby can swim with a primitive style. Not that after the age of the child can not swim anymore, you know.

Despite his reflexes had disappeared, he still can do the swim, although not organized or disheveled. You see, with no gravity, he felt pressured from below the water so he could float. He was so happy. Especially since the mother's belly, the baby was actually swimming in the amniotic fluid for 9 months.

After birth, residence enhanced ability to swim alone. In fact, so popular this swim, outside the country to have the birthing process is carried out in the water, you know. "Medically, this will not cause problems because it is a natural process." So there's no reason to hesitate to invite your child to swim. "
must be secure
The important note, when swimming, babies need to feel secure and there must be a safety. So, parents should be with him. "If parents are both into the water and swim together with the baby, then in addition to feeling safe, baby can feel no response from parents," said Karel.

In addition to assisting parents, can also play with the baby so that there is human interaction. "This is one of the benefits of swimming."

Just compare the new baby when learning to sit or walk, whether the parents will assist and perform the same movement is continuous with the child? Kan, baseball. "Well, another swim. They both entered the water, swim together, so enjoy it more flavor.

It would be useful for the psychological development of children. "That is why, both parents should go along with playing in the water. Obviously, swimming is also useful for growth.

"Motor develops more rapidly than he was just playing on the floor." Do not swim when all the muscles work? Now, if on the floor, only certain muscles are working. Moreover, if the mother gives the baby a baby walker to get used to running with it. Finally, muscle movements become limited because only certain muscles are working.
