The Importance Of Focusing On Right Brain Development And Education For Children

 “Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.” - Albert Einstein

Children are curious, emotional, and active little individuals. It’s an indication of all the wonderful brain growth that occurs daily. According to research, the brain may create new pathways and networks that boost cognitive ability and performance in various domains. 

Both hemispheres of the brain must cooperate for the brain to function correctly. Morning Glorie’s right brain development education and training uses sensory engagement, physical growth, and cognitive development to construct and enhance these connections. 

The Problem Of Rote Learning In Educational Institutions 

Rather than concentrating on tedious work and project books, right brain development prefers to create engaging activities. Active initiatives that need a hands-on approach are always appealing. Unfortunately, practically all present school curricula are left-brain focused, and they always emphasise on writing, reciting, reproducing, and rote learning. 

The difficulty with rote memory is that it does not involve comprehension of the content to be learned. When a young child recites the alphabet, song lyrics, or numbers, it may be an indication of their language and/or memory skills, but it does not mean the child understands what he is saying. 

Morning Glorie, like many other educational techniques, opposes rote learning in favour of sensorial learning, which involves linking actions to consequences and written symbols to the objects they represent. The right side of the brain is responsible for creative, social, visual, and intuitive abilities. 

Paints and markers are only one aspect of creativity. Encouragement of creative thinking in children offers several advantages for their healthy development and personal growth. The majority of today's educational curricula emphasise fact memorization, data, and repetition. On the other side, creative learning encourages children to experiment with new ideas, take chances, and utilise their creativity. Hypothetical questioning, abstract ideation, imaginative play, storytelling, and experimentation are all examples of creative learning strategies.

Encouraging Children How To Think And Not What To Think

Nowadays, most individuals are left-brain dominant, thinking rationally and ignoring the right brain. The right brain’s role and growth are frequently overlooked.

The first eight years of a child’s existence are critical for their future health and development. One of the critical causes is the rapid growth of the brain, which begins before birth and continues through early life. Despite the fact that the brain continues to develop and alter throughout adulthood, the first eight years can lay the groundwork for future learning, health, and life success.

Supporting healthy brain development requires nurturing and responsive care for the child’s body and mind. The problem with our formal education is that it primarily focuses on developing left-brain capabilities like logic and reasoning.

While the left brain is more concerned with outcomes or products, the right brain is more concerned with the process - it is the trip, not the destination, that matters. The right brain is in charge of empathy, intuition, imagination, and creativity. It is here that we wonder, dream, connect, and awaken. We reside in the space of no-time, in being completely present, thanks to the right brain. 

The systematic and logical reasoning of the left brain is used in maths calculations and science investigations. Right brain development, which is also essential to completely release a child’s potential, is limited. 

We feel that the most successful teachings are those that excite and develop the right brain in children. Consequently, we place a premium on the quality of our instructional activities and how our instructors present them most excitingly and effectively.
