The theory of Multiple Intelligences was discovered by Howard Gardner of Harvard. Through his cognitive research, he has identified several distinct intelligence types where people (particularly students) differ in learning, remembering, understanding, and solving problems.

What are these types of intelligence, and how to identify if children at a Daycare in Odessa, Texas have them? Here are some:

Visual-Spatial
Kids with this learning style are daydreamers. They think in terms of physical space. And as they are aware of the environment, they like to read, solve jigsaw puzzles and draw maps.
Bodily-Kinesthetic
This intelligence involves a keen sense of body awareness. Kids effectively communicate through body movement and physical activity. They can have a Head Start at role-playing or hands-on learning.
Interpersonal
Students with this kind of learning style are street smarts. They can learn through interaction, keep many friends, and show empathy for others.
Intrapersonal
Opposite to interpersonal intelligence, kids with this feature tend to shy away from others. They have wisdom, self-motivation, and a strong will. They love books, creative materials, and diaries and enjoy privacy and me-time.

Sometimes, parents expect their children to do things easily. Yes, children tend to be like sponges and absorb what they see around them, but they have different milestones and different development timelines. What matters is we provide them with quality Early Childhood Education.

So if you don’t see these bits of intelligence in your children yet, help them achieve by honing their skills in different ways and letting them explore the wonders of their surroundings. A well-guided Children Development Care could trigger the rise of their hidden smartness.

And Little Angels Play School is your partner in providing child-centered learning.
