ROLE OF A PARENT IN COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT OF A CHILD

Cognitive development in babies is an exiting  process. From birth, babies begin to understand the world around them through sensory experiences and interactions.

Some key areas of cognitive development in babies include:

1. *Recognizing faces and voices*: Babies as young as a few months old can recognize familiar faces and voices.
2. *Object permanence*: Around 6-9 months, babies understand that objects continue to exist even when out of sight.
3. *Problem-solving*: Babies start to develop problem-solving skills through experimentation and exploration.
4. *Imitation*: Babies learn by imitating others, which helps develop their cognitive and social skills.
5. *Memory*: Babies start to develop memory skills, recognizing familiar objects and events.

Parents and caregivers can support cognitive development in babies by:

1. *Engaging in interactive play*
2. *Reading and storytelling*
3. *Singing songs and reciting nursery rhymes*
4. *Providing sensory experiences*
5. *Responding to baby's cues and coos*

These interactions help stimulate baby's brain development and lay the foundation for future cognitive abilities.
