Schoolgoer's Growth and Development (7 Years, 1-Month-Old)


Congratulations! Now that your kid is 7 years and 1-month-old, you can expect a lot more growth and development in the months ahead. Read along to know what to expect.
You will find the time flying like anything when you are the mother of a 7 year old child. While she might be tugging this moment, she may again turn back to her books in another moment. When you can understand the developments going on with her, it shall be easier for you to parent her.
She is now in the middle of her childhood and finds plenty of challenges to overcome every day. Parenting your 7 years old is also a big challenge for you now. When you look back you shall feel amazed at the number if milestones she has achieved by now.

Physical Developments

She has developed advanced motor skills now and exhibits a lot more confidence while performing her favourite activities. You can also find improved balance in your 7 years old now. With improved physical strength and stamina she shall love participating in more challenging games. You may also find her keen on joining performance teams and competitive sports. Exercise shall still be considered vitally essential to ensure healthy growth and development. Your child may develop health issues like obesity due to lack of exercises. Thus, it is important you are careful about her daily exercise routine.
However, you need to keep in mind that children develop at different rates and thus it would be unfair if you keep on comparing her growth progress with others. You may find your child advanced in an area, while lagging behind elsewhere. This is perfectly normal and rather than pressurising, you should in fact encourage her to sharpen her capabilities more.

Brain Developments

Your kid is going through fast neurological developments now. Her neutral connections are being fined tuned at this age. These fine tuning are helping her become more efficient and develop processing speed. This shall help her engage in more complex planning and thinking processes.
You may be completely charmed to see her mental growth and ability to put forward her point of views effectively. She has developed better thinking abilities and is cognitively more flexible. Now that she is attending her school every day she is coming across different point of views and can understand the perspective of another individual.

Social and Emotional Developments

Just as you are discovering your kid every day, she too is in the process of discovering her abilities now. You shall find her keen on making friendships with those in her school and the neighbourhoods. She can now distinguish feelings between shame and pride.
She shall still need your guidance time and again. She shall also learn to regulate emotions from you. She is also finding socially acceptable ways to vent out anger and frustration.

Parenting Tips

Take a look at some of the helpful parenting tips shared below:
You must help her identify her emotions. This is in fact a powerful skill that she needs to master.
Help her count from 1 to 10 if she feels angry and wants to vent out her emotions. She must be able to self soothe herself.
She should develop an understanding of the right and the wrong. She must be well aware of her strengths, talents and abilities. Developing an understanding of herself shall help her deal with the complexities of life better.
These are just some of the few developments discussed here. You shall be able to see a lot more changes in your kid this month. For any developmental concerns and questions, you can always have a talk with her doctor.
