1. 10 Steps To Make
Your Kids Smarter
All we want is the best for our kids. We want to do everything
possible to develop them in a perfect manner. To ease this
process, science proved some steps that can help to make
your kids smart.
As per a research article published in Times Opinion, here are
few steps that science has explored that makes children –
from babies up through the teen years – smarter.

2. 1. Music Lessons: Research shows that music lessons make
kids smarter. Compared with children in the control groups,
children in the music groups exhibited greater increases in
full-scale IQ. In fact, music training helps everyone – young
or old. A growing body of research finds musical training gives
students learning advantages in the classroom.
2. Health conscious are smarter: Being in good shape
increases your ability to learn. After exercise people pick up
new vocabulary words 20% faster. A 3 month exercise
regimen increased blood flow to the part of the brain focused
on memory and learning by 30%.
3. Don’t read to your kids, read with them: Got a little
one who is learning to read? Don’t let them just stare at the
pictures in a book while you do all the reading. Call attention
to the words. Read with them, not to them. Research shows it
helps build their reading skills.

3. 4. Good Sleep correlates grades: Missing an hour of
sleep turns a sixth grader’s brain into that of a fourth
grader. A loss of one hour of sleep is equivalent to [the
loss of] two years of cognitive maturation and
development – a study explains. There is a correlation
between grades and average amount of sleep.
5. Self-Discipline is as important as IQ: Dozens of
studies show that willpower is the single most
important keystone habit for individual success…
Students who exerted high levels of willpower were
more likely to earn higher grades in their classes and
gain admission into more selective schools. They had
fewer absences and spent less time watching television
and more hours on homework. “Highly self-disciplined
adolescents outperformed their more impulsive peers
on every academic-performance variable,” the
researchers wrote. “Self-discipline predicted academic
performance more robustly than did IQ.

4. 6. Learning is an active process: Our brains evolved to
learn by doing things, not by hearing about them. This
is one of the reasons that, for a lot of skills, it’s much
better to spend about two thirds of your time testing
yourself on it rather than absorbing it.
7. Eating makes a difference: No kid eats healthy all
the time. But the irony is that kids often get “bad”
foods at the wrong time. Research shows caffeine and
sugar can be brain boosters. So if kids are going to
occasionally eat candy and soda maybe it’s better to
give it to them while they study then when they’re
relaxing.
8. Happy kids are more successful: Happier kids are
more likely to turn into successful, accomplished
adults. Happiness is a tremendous advantage in a
world that emphasizes performance. On average,
happy people are more successful than unhappy people
at both work and love.

5. 9. Peer Group matters: Your genetics and the genetics
of your partner have a huge effect on your kids. But the
way you raise your kids? Not nearly as much. We
usually only talk about peer pressure when it’s a
negative but more often than not, it’s a positive. Living
in a nice neighbourhood, going to solid schools and
making sure your children hang out with good kids can
make a huge difference.
10. Believe in them: Believing your kid is smarter than
average makes a difference. When teachers were told
certain kids were sharper, those kids did better — even
though the kids were selected at random.
