JAKARTA - Entering the new school year, the first day of Si Kecil school became a new challenge for him, especially for your little one at the age of the first 5 years who will enter the level of formal education. It is important to understand that the age of the first 5 years of life is a golden period where the development of your little one's brain is almost fully formed at that age.

The initial foundations of learning, behavior and skills such as memory or logic and reasoning, have also developed, especially in this period. And will form a basis for brain development for adolescence and adulthood.

Dr. Kartika Eda Clearesta, Sp.A as a pediatrician said 90 percent of brain development occurs at the age of 5, where there is no other period in her life that has a very significant impact.

"Children's brains in this golden period are growing very rapidly, indeed prepared to learn and absorb as much information as possible. Therefore, people should not miss this important period as an initial preparation when they are about to start going to school so that he is smarter and more courageous later," he said in a written statement, Sunday, August 4. Optimal brain and cognitive development can support children to adapt and develop the abilities needed to achieve achievements. There are 3 supporting factors needed for brain development and cognitiveness, namely:

1. Stimulation: The sensory and motor experience at the beginning of life can affect brain to adult development. Parents can invite their children to play and study together, such as reading books before bed or playing in the park to stimulate their development.

2. Socialization: A supportive, caring, and consistent relationship between children and parents is the key to healthy brain development. Relationships between peers, especially when playing, can also affect behavior and social competence as adults.

3. Nutrient intake: The development of the child's brain can be optimized by fulfilling the nutrients that play an important role in brain development from the beginning of life to the age of 5.

In addition to cognitive stimulation, complete nutrition needs to be given at these important times. Important nutrients such as DHA, Omega 3, Omega 6, iron, and Vitamin C include essential nutrients that cannot be produced by the body in the optimal amount so it is necessary to add intake rich in these nutrients, such as growth milk.

Complete and important nutritional supplements such as DHA, Omega 3, Omega 6, iron and Vitamin C are needed to support children's optimal growth and development. If it does not get sufficient nutritional intake, it risks developing growth and development disorders. Moreover, adequate iron intake in school-age children is shown to significantly increase intelligence, concentration, and memory power, higher than children without sufficient iron intake. In addition, Omega 3 fat acids are the type of essential fatty acids that the body needs, especially for the development of Si Kecil's brain and can be obtained from fish oil or growth milk," explained dr.
