Know These Ten Secrets about Your Baby’s Thinking

Let’s start the discussion with a question. What did you think when you were a baby? Don’t worry! People can only remember memories after 30 months of age. Have you ever thought what is your little one thinking right now? Today, we will know some amazing information about a baby’s thought. The way of their thinking is quite different and astonishing. After some long researchers, experts have ended up saying that a baby’s mind is like a factory. Whatever you use as raw materials, they will process them at their will. So, what do they actually think? And, what is the uniqueness in their thinking pattern?

1. Babies Interact with Objects For the first few months, a baby cannot understand the difference between an object and human. Soon, it gets interested in the movement of the object. A new pattern, a new move or any sound coming from a chair, table or spoon attracts the baby. The baby starts to think about the object and the sound.

2. Linguistic Difference It’s quite fascinating that a baby catches a newly spoken language easily. If you start speaking French instead of English all of a sudden, the baby will understand the difference and start learning from it. Yes! They learn a language faster than any adult. There is a reason of their quick-learning ability. Basically, a baby comes into the world without any language. They can only make sounds. When they notice that calling “Ma” or “Mommy” means food will arrive, they find it more profitable. As a result, they start learning words which they need instantly. A baby learns to know the names of its dear ones as they adore him/her the most. Later on, the baby memorizes names of food as well as candy. Whatever they like, they will memorize. So, stay fully aware when you are going to use a new language in front of your baby. Because, it is learning!

3. Music Makes a Baby Thoughtful! Though it is hard to believe, a baby is a thoughtful admirer of good music. These little Mozarts can think about music for a long time. A baby is naturally interested in sounds. When it finds something more instrumental or musical, it gets attracted with the tone. Also, it creates a new path in their brain. New synapse of Neuron means a bunch of new thoughts. You can gift your baby a toy guitar and see the magic. As soon as it finds the difference in chords, the baby will start playing it. Recent studies claim that music makes a child more extrovert and thoughtful.

4. Babies Believe and Follow A Team You may notice that a baby follows an adult. But the new studies have proved the consequences of several babies together. When you leave your kid with others, they will make a team and follow each other’s behavior. This sort of thinking is quite advanced from adults. It is a major reason behind the psychiatric suggestion, “don’t fight in front of a baby”. The baby likes the reaction and interaction. This creates a long term effect in its mind. The baby finds it is normal to fight and shout against others. Teamwork mind setup inspires them to think so.

5. Babies are More Human Being in Thoughts! Grownups are more selfish than babies. Recently a study was published regarding the selflessness of a baby. A group of babies got a new toy in a pair. They were told to gift others who didn’t have a toy. Without any question, they happily handed over their extra toys. Such giving attitude is merely present among us. But, babies think everything equally and more selflessness than us. It is a good option to pet a dog at home. This will be more helpful for the baby to share things.

6. When You are Sad, Your Baby Knows It! Babies can simply understand any difference in emotion. According to the change of emotion, they change behavior. So, don’t try to fool your kid with fake emotion. The baby will catch it instantly and react to you. Later on, the baby will start to grow with the emotions that it has received from the surrounding. A research in the Brigham Young University has found the change of chemical reaction in a baby’s mind can be created from romantic songs or tragic drama. A toddler thinks of anger, happiness, sorrow and joy.

7. A Baby is a Fair Judge It may seem a bit dramatic, but a baby can judge more fairly than a grownup. You can test it by giving a breakable gift. Gather two babies and ask them to share a food. Researchers have found that they do not misjudge while breaking the piece equally. Most of the time, they share an equal amount of pieces with each other.

8. Your Baby Appreciate Punishment If your baby mistakes, you can punish in a limit. Don’t think it’s rude. Actually, the baby will know the punishment is the result of its mistake. This type of appreciation is commonly found in a baby’s pattern of thinking. They think it is fair to be punished when something has been done mistakenly. The researchers of the University of British Columbia have found that a baby thinks and believe in the natural law of returns. If one does wrong, he should be punished well. Fair!

9. A Kid is a Color Picker When a baby starts to blink after a few months, it can notice the color difference easily. According to the studies, babies are fond of bright colors like pink, red and indigo. They think these colors are more expressive.

10. Your Baby is a Computer-genius! Babies can calculate things better than us. Actually, a baby wants to calculate the ongoing scenarios by their abilities. Whenever you gift a toy to your baby, it will create a calculative thinking in the baby’s mind. The baby will start to think what can be done with the toy instead of playing it. This is why, babies are used to break toys. We can conclude the discussion saying this, “a baby is more thoughtful and generous than us”. Keeping them in a positive and fair environment is the right way to nurture them. Let it be then. Good Luck with your baby caring!
