What should I do if I travel with a very young child and the child cannot remember at all?

Like many parents, the reason why they plan to travel with their children is because they want their children to experience the world and experience the process of traveling at a very young age.

However, this approach has also been questioned by many people: children's memory is not complete enough. They cannot remember anything when they travel when they are young, and it is of no use to them.

In fact, the significance of taking children to travel is not what they will remember, but what they will experience. Every new journey will always make them feel more nature, experience more culture, and see more scenery, and these things will invisibly cause children to think and enrich their experience.

But if you want travel to have a substantial effect on a child's growth, it is not just about putting the child into a plan arranged by adults. There are many things that parents need to pay attention to during this process.

The child is too young to remember when taking him on a trip? First of all, we must understand what children's happiness is

Happiness is the guide for all actions, but children's happiness is often different from adults' happiness. Children are born with the talent to find happiness, and their happiness is always higher than that of adults. Simple and straightforward. What is a child's happiness?

Parents often find that their children’s happiness is always simple and repetitive. Children can slide back and forth on the same slide all morning; they can experience the rocking car in the mall regularly every day for up to half a month.

They have done the same thing many times, but they still feel as happy every time as the first time. Their happiness always appears in subtle ways that their parents don't expect.

So when traveling, parents think that the arrangements are perfectly planned, but the children do not appreciate them at all. Because for children, happiness is always the most primitive and smallest. It does not require any material, nor does it require a deliberately created atmosphere. The reasons for differences in happiness

In the book "Exploring the Brain Development Map of Babies Aged 0-5", Dr. Liz Elliott writes: "Children see, touch, hear, feel, Everything you taste and think about is converted into the electric wave activity of neuron synapses

Inactive neuron synapses - whether it is unheard language, music, or untried. Sports activities, mountains and rivers that have never been seen, and even love that has never been received will all wither and die."

When a child starts from the infant state, the brain is in a state of rapid development. As they grow, their synaptic connections rapidly increase.

In the brain of a normal child, one neuron can generate tens of thousands of synapses, and it only takes a few seconds to generate one synapse. At the age of 2 years, the number of synapses in the brain of young children is basically the same as that of adults. At the age of 3 years, the number of synapses in the brain of young children has reached twice that of adults.

But it does not mean that the greater the number of synapses in the brain, the more mature the behavioral ability will be. On the contrary, this is a sign of immaturity, because there are too many nerve tree synapses in the child's brain.

This is because their brains are not yet capable of automatically repairing "extra" dendrites. The existence of too many nerve tree synapses will cause children to constantly superimpose stimulation and feelings, and stimulate each other, and they will involuntarily perform repeated activities.

This is a good explanation of why children like to do one thing over and over again. The reason why parents and children feel different happiness is in the process of growing up.

After the nerve dendrites in the brain have received enough stimulation and no longer produce a sense of novelty, they will be cleared by the brain. When a child grows into an adult, nearly 40% of the dendrites in the brain will be cleared away.

Children of different ages have different perceptions of the outside world. Therefore, parents’ attention points and travel methods when arranging itineraries should also be reasonably handled based on the different age groups of their children. 0-2 years old: Control the number of trips and experience them deeply

Small-age babies will have a stronger sense of unfamiliarity with the new environment and are more likely to lose control of their emotions, so be sure to pay attention to the number and time of trips. Too often.

Babies who are out of control for a long time will make them lose their sense of security. At the same time, young babies have great requirements for work and rest time and diet. During the trip, the biological clock of the child must be respected, and the itinerary should not be too full.

When traveling, young babies often do not go according to plan. When children first enter an attraction, they may be attracted by the toy cars at the door and refuse to leave.

Slow down experiential travel is suitable for children who are too young. It is suitable for them to have enough time to focus on one place. The itinerary should not be arranged too much or too fast. 3-6 years old: willing to accompany and develop ideas

For 3-year-old children, logical consciousness begins to sprout, and the world is full of unknowns for them. In a new environment, the behaviors and stories parents tell their children will more or less bring them new cognitions as they grow.

Parents mostly play the role of tour guides in this process, explaining the stories of the scenic spots in a language they can understand, guiding their thinking, and explaining their doubts. For children of this age, parents can choose to travel far.

More experiences that break through their cognition will continue to cultivate their imagination and thinking abilities. Over 6 years old: Revealing the unknown and cultivating interest

Traveling for children over 6 years old often brings more of their own thinking and knowledge. When choosing a trip, parents should pay more attention to their children's attention points and fun.

By experiencing different cultures and experiencing different things, children can better find their own interests and hobbies in this process, and may also develop into their ideals and goals of realizing the value of life.

This process is crucial for children. Because this will open a door for them to understand the world, so that their feelings and understanding of the outside world truly come from themselves.
