Psychomotor development (in the first 5 months)
  •     Facilitate anticipation through language, from birth, prevent him from all your exchanges: calming him, feeding him, care, carrying, discoveries, games.
  •     These stimulations are short but often by encouraging him, "Bravo" is universal.
Involve him to encourage
  •     Body experienced, body perceived, body represented. Sensations, attentions, discriminations, memories.
  •     Memories, episodic, semantic, procedural, schematic, representational.
  •     Cerebral maturation, tonus, global and fine motor skills, laterality, body schema, spatial and temporal organisation,
  •     Sensorimotor perception, dissociation, coordination and balance.
  •     To help success engender self-confidence.

  • Beginning of the personality towards 5 months, the stage of the mirror of J. Lacan, he recognizes himself and expresses himself also: if he agitates his wrists in "marionette" -> that does not go at all, reassure him. If he raises his legs and does the "petit-pont" -> everything is fine, play with him.

How to develop the acquisitions of the child?

5 stages follow one another to create this tuning which transmits knowledge.
Prevent, play, show, help, comfort.
From emotion to action...

  • Prevent: Called by his or her first name, the child asks, -What? then the "If you like it?" establishes the communication marks respect. His attention is open to understand the dialogue and the exchange. Without this, the attention returns to the imagination. Preventing is also describing the exchange to allow him to anticipate.


  • Playing: It is on a secure base,

Spontaneous and universal. It gives form to thought.
Filling a void of space, time, relationship.
A fiction of reality with adherence to rules with frivolity and uncertainty, to differentiate and surpass oneself.
Imagination at the service of emotions.
Acting to control beyond desire, beyond thought.
Using space to build time.
Accommodation to rules to assimilate them.
Accepting the reality between the world and the child, but without its consequences.
Understanding the world and oneself to settle in it.
An intermediate area of invention and creation, of culture and belief.
Concentration and effort giving pleasure
To build oneself, everything is in the game. (D.Winnicott)

  • Showing: This is the place of the mirror neurons, it is at birth, what provokes imitation.

It is the joint attention which is conducive to structured interactions requiring :
A calm environment without distraction
A brief, clear, direct exchange,
Use "I" avoid "you", negations, innuendo, irony, judgement.
Be attentive to non-verbal communication of physical expression, discomfort, weariness, inattention.
Knowing how to stop showing, and then start again in a different way.

  • -Helping: It's doing him

Take the time to maintain the effort and develop the skill.
Take pleasure in trying
Explain, improve, train.
Often this phase is part of the game and comforting

  • Comfort: We learn from our failures.

Put the setback into perspective,
Preserve self-confidence,
Start again in another way, by taking him in your arms, in front of a mirror, at another time, with another person.

When it's over, the procedure is finished.
She will start again for something else.
Teach her to look good, starting over is normal because it is always a little different.
The brain notices the differences and remembers the similarities.

Keep a dated trace of what she has learned in writing, by photo, by video... because it goes very fast.
