What are the benefits of baby learning to crawl

What are the benefits of baby learning to crawl? The benefits are naturally very numerous. The most basic is to improve the baby’s mobility, followed by the ability to enhance the baby’s physical fitness, as well as to improve the baby’s intelligence and so on. Let’s take a look at the specific benefits:
1. Improve activity
In addition to exercising the strength of the baby’s large muscle activities and the coordination and flexibility of the limbs, crawling can also help the development of the sense of sight and hearing, the sense of space position, and the sense of balance, and promote the coordination of the body; it can also make blood circulation smooth. And promote the growth and development of muscles and bones, which can improve the baby’s ability to move as a whole.
2. Enhance physical fitness
One of the benefits of training your baby to crawl is that it can exercise the strength of the chest muscles, back muscles, abdominal muscles and limb muscles; and it consumes more energy during crawling, which helps the baby eat more, sleep well, weight, and grow faster.
3. Improve parent-child relationship
Training babies to crawl can improve communication between mother and child. After the baby can crawl, the experience of success under the guidance of the parents continues to increase, and the experience of excitement, success, and failure can be obtained in crawling. These experiences can enrich the baby’s emotions. Studies have shown that the excitement state of the baby who often crawls when seeing their parents is significantly higher than that of the baby who does not crawl.
4. Promote brain development
When training a baby to crawl, close cooperation between the big and cerebellum is required. More crawling can enrich the neural connection between the big and cerebellum and promote the growth of the brain. The crawling movement is reflected by the initial crawling, through the intermediate links such as raising the head, turning over, rolling, and crawling, and finally develops into a real crawling. It requires multiple learning and practice; each learning and practice is a mobilization of the brain’s enthusiasm And inspire. Therefore, learning to crawl is actually an intensive training for the function of the brain and nervous system, which has an irreplaceable special effect on the development of the brain.
5. Cultivate a good character
Crawling has brought a lot of unexpected fun to the baby, and “touching, crawling and rolling” also exercises the baby’s will and courage, which is conducive to the development of the baby’s personality.
6. Cultivate the desire to explore
The baby’s motor and nervous systems are fully exercised during crawling. This not only helps babies develop their bones, muscles, nerves, and brain, but also lays a good physical and psychological foundation for them to understand the world earlier and better. These learning experiences will be turned into curiosity, allowing babies to have the courage to explore, and cultivate the ability and confidence to solve problems independently in the future.
