There are different stages of cognitive development that include reasoning, intelligence, language, and memory and the starting stage of this is when a child is 18 months old.<\/p>\n<p>Cognitive development steadily builds when a child gets attracted or catches the attention of something while playing, listening, watching, etc.<\/p>\n<p>\u200d<\/p>\n<h2>Piaget\u2019s stages of cognitive development<\/h2>\n<p>Jean William Fritz Piaget is a well-known Swiss child psychologist and the person behind the theory of \u2018cognitive development. He developed the four stages of cognitive development that detail the cognitive development from the infant to adult stage.<\/p>\n<p>Piaget\u2019s stages of cognitive development include the sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational periods. Piaget\u2019s theory is based on close observation with children and believes that they are natural learners, explorers, and enthusiasts who want to experiment with new things.<\/p>\n<p>\u200d<\/p>\n<h2>Let\u2019s understand the Piaget stages of development in detail.<\/h2>\n<p>As and when children grow, their way of thinking increases, and they want to explore more. In the urge of learning new things, children end up faltering in what they know and what they have to know. Hence, in different stages children behave and operate differently and this is well explained in Piaget\u2019s 4 stages of cognitive development.<\/p>\n<p>Hence, in different stages children behave and operate differently and this is well explained in Piaget\u2019s 4 stages of cognitive development.<\/p>\n<h3>Sensorimotor stage<\/h3>\n<p>Sensorimotor is Piaget\u2019s first stage of cognitive development that describes form birth to two years. This is the initial developmental stage of a child wherein the child is not able to think logically or thoughtfully. This stage is subdivided into 6 stages starting from 1-4, 5-8, 8-12, 12-18, and 18-24 months. The child transitions to the preoperational stage.<\/p>\n<h3>Preoperational stage<\/h3>\n<p>The preoperational stage explains the cognitive aspect of childhood between the ages of 2 to7 years. In this stage, the children start developing and displaying their qualities like creativity, language imagination, and their thoughts are ruled by principles like egocentrism, animism, and other similar ones. During this stage, children are unable to think or accept beyond their views and thoughts.<\/p>\n<h3>Concrete operational stage<\/h3>\n<p>The operational stage that lasts between 7 to 12 years depicts the ability to reason positively and concretely. In this stage, their ability to think is better where they can analyze and judge complex situations.<\/p>\n<h3>Formal operational stage<\/h3>\n<p>In the formal operational stage, children in the age group of 12 to adulthood are exposed to logical thinking and reasoning. This is an advanced stage where they are introduced to concrete and abstract examples that enhances their critical thinking, creativity, and intellectual abilities. They are better decision-makers in choosing their interests and picturing their future.<\/p>\n<p>\u200d<\/p>\n<div class=\"w-embed w-script\">\n<div class=\"Click-here-pune click-ebook\">\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"12426\" class=\"elementor elementor-12426\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-75e7e1a e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"75e7e1a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"jet-popup-target elementor-element elementor-element-622ae21 elementor-align-center exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-jet-popup=\"{&quot;attached-popup&quot;:&quot;jet-popup-12373&quot;,&quot;trigger-type&quot;:&quot;click-self&quot;,&quot;trigger-custom-selector&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;loop-dynamic-popup&quot;:false}\" data-id=\"622ae21\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm elementor-animation-pulse\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.globalschools.com\/bangalore\/curricula\/cbse\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Start Your Journey - Explore the CBSE Curriculum<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u200d\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"13048\" class=\"elementor elementor-13048\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ed87cc5 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"ed87cc5\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-be16ee0 exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"be16ee0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/bangalore\/admissions\/enquiry-form\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"787\" height=\"180\" src=\"https:\/\/globalindianschool.org\/bangalore\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Drop-Your-Enquiry.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-17295\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalindianschool.org\/bangalore\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Drop-Your-Enquiry.jpeg 787w, https:\/\/globalindianschool.org\/bangalore\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Drop-Your-Enquiry-300x69.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/globalindianschool.org\/bangalore\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Drop-Your-Enquiry-768x176.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 787px) 100vw, 787px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\u200d<\/p>\n<h2>Five major cognitive functions of the human brain<\/h2>\n<p>The human brain is the most complex part of the human body. It is said that in childhood brain development is faster than in adulthood. The brain is the integral part of our body that passes on information across the body parts. There are several functions associated with the brain, but the five most important cognitive functions of the human brain are:<\/p>\n<p>Though intelligence is a broader term that can be defined in various ways it plays a very important role in the functioning of the brain. Intelligence is a part of cognition as they both are related to the mental process that deals with the ability to think, understand, acquire things and deal with them.<\/p>\n<p>Reasoning is the ability to assess, analyze situations and problems and reach a logical conclusion or solve various problems. It is an important cognitive function that has the capability of predictions, problem-solving, concluding, and framing explanations. It has three approaches that are deductive, inductive, and abductive.<\/p>\n<p>Better language development will lead to better cognitive skills. Language is important for cognitive development in children as it helps in interaction, learning new ideas, and communicating their thoughts. The initial stages would be to teach them speeches and gestures and then move on to the understanding of words and sentences.<\/p>\n<p>It is said that the human mind processes the information they receive. Information process is how the human thought process works right from understanding, perceiving, processing, storing, recording, and delivering information. It plays an important role in decision-making during complex situations.<\/p>\n<p>Memory is an important cognitive function that helps in coding, storing, and recovering past information. Memory can be short-term, long-term, auditory, contextual, naming, and recognition.<\/p>\n<h3>Cognitive activities for Children&#8217;s memory<\/h3>\n<p>Children progress at a faster pace in the first five years in areas of motor, language, communication, cognitive, social, and emotional development.\u00a0 Cognitive development that fosters the growth of thinking, knowledge, and problem-solving abilities must be the focal point in the growing years of the children.<\/p>\n<p>Parents need to provide the foundation of cognitive development in their children that would help them to be successful in the future. A few of the cognitive skills for early childhood that can be introduced by parents are:<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Identifying letters and numbers through simple games, writing activities.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Identify a few common objects.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Making them hear the sounds of animals and identifying the animals.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Flashcards or blocks or rings to identify colours, and build concentration.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Reading aloud to learn rhymes and words.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Puzzles to identify objects, people, animals, etc.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Responding to their queries.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Segregating colours, shapes, letters, numbers, etc.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Simple instructions to learn manners, etiquette, and routine.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Cognitive Developmental Milestones<\/h3>\n<p>Cognitive milestones are the achievements of the children in various stages. From an infant to an adult, they learn and explore new things and activities. The cognitive milestones at different stages are:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Birth to 6 months:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Listen to the sounds around them<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Sucking the nipples of the bottle<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Looking at the colours around them<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Recognize faces of caregivers<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Imitating expressions<\/p>\n<p><strong>6 to 12 months<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Observing objects for a longer time<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Looking at books and images<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Showing expressions and responding with gestures<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Follow instructions<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Expressing requirements with gestures<\/p>\n<p><strong>12 to 18 months<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Identifying similar objects<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Understanding language and responding to the same<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Searching for the toys<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Remembering things around the house<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf Solving simple problems<\/p>\n<p>\u200d<\/p>\n<div class=\"w-embed\">\n<p class=\"has-background\"><strong>Also Read:\u00a0<a href=\"\/bangalore\/blog-details\/why-must-you-consider-taking-admission-in-an-international-school-in-bangalore-that-offers-holistic-development\">Why Must You Consider Taking Admission in International School that Offers Holistic Development?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>\u200d<span data-sheets-root=\"1\">\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"12383\" class=\"elementor elementor-12383\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4d49fdc9 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"4d49fdc9\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5727b64a exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"5727b64a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/globalindianschool.org\/bangalore\/admissions\/enquiry-form\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Secure Your Child\u2019s Future: Enroll Today!<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5e02be42 exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"5e02be42\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"\/bangalore\/admissions\/campus-tour#campus-tour-new\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Explore Our Campus And Know More<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n<p>Schools play an important role in nurturing the cognitive development of children.
