Prenatal stimulation is a process that encourages learning in unborn babies
optimizing mental and sensory development. Valuable research has shown that stimuli such as soft and melodious sounds, the human voice, especially the mother's, as well
as light and vibrations are pleasurable to the baby.
Studies like the one led by Dr. Manrique
have suggested that it is possible to enhance the development of the child's brain before
birth.
However, the baby can learn to relate these stimuli to their meanings only if they are
presented in an organized way, otherwise, they will probably forget or ignore them. You
have to show them that these stimuli have a related significance by creating a meaningful
context. We know that when the experiences occur in a pattern, they are organized in the
baby's brain more efficently.
The human brain is made up of cells (neurons). These cells form
networks of connections. Every time a brain is stimulated in an adequate way new neuronal
connections are being made. The more connections, the more neurons integrated; this
determines intelligence, social and emotional skills.
Prenatal stimulated babies tend to exhibit enhanced visual, auditory, and motor
development. They also show superior learning capacity and higher IQs.
