Techniques to Improve Memory Skills for Kids

Improving memory skill is necessary for schooling children so they can excel in their study. There are tips and techniques to improve memory skills for kids other than rote learning, learning by repetition which is a common practice for students.

Visualization. Elaborate information with charts, graphics or images will make easier for children to understand about the subject and to memorize it easily. For example: a food pyramid. At Preschool, children learn to remember the word written if they draw a picture next to the word. When my primary school child learned about the habitat, the teacher took the children out to observe the habitat in the school compound. They observed animals and insects lived around the tree and they visualized them into a drawing and made a table about the animals and their habitat.

Mind Map. Mind map is the result of visualization. My eldest child learns a simple mind map and she summarizes the information into mind map . It doesn’t have many branches as the complex mind map used by college students or professionals. Take a look at my child’s mind map below. She added colours and applied her creativity so the mind map is not just plain and boring.

Association or Mnemonic which means mindful. You can convert information into funny phrases or abbreviation that you can recall easily. For example: the colours of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple. You can convert them into: ROY GBP (Great Britain Pound sterling). My preschooler child remembers the phonic by making it into songs. The phonic of letter C, she sings it: Camel coughs ccc.

Doing Project. Students have a better understanding of the subject if they work on the project rather than they learn by repetition for the exam. By doing the project, they gather information, understand and write them. They use their judgment and creativity to produce a paper.

Tips to Improve Memory Skills for Kids

Besides applying techniques above to improve memory skills for kid, kids need a positive social support and environment.

If parents can oversee their children to study and give them encouragement, their academic result will fare well. Students who work  together in a team or study together will support each other and they may learn faster.

Brain Food to Improve Memory Skills for Kids

Take plenty of  cold-water fish, canola oil, soybeans, walnuts, wheat germ, eggs, and flaxseed oil. They’re rich in Omega 3 but processing food often removes Omega 3. Hence, you can give your kids fish oil supplement which is rich in Omega 3.
