How to improve working memory in child

By 30 months, your child can name a few body parts, some colors, and even a friend or two. Her memory and speaking ability work in tandem. Help out by expanding on what she says. If she says, “Dog sleep,” you might say, “Yes, Spot is curled up and fast asleep in his doggie bed.” She can’t imitate your complex language patterns yet, but her brain is absorbing them. Every time you repeat her words or expand on them, you’re giving her memory practice. It is very important to make use of the working memory test for child to ascertain exactly the extent of teaching you need to give.

What can a 2-year-old remember? More and more every day! He’s developing a way of thinking called spatial representation or symbolic thinking. Basically it means he can see things in his mind’s eye. As experience and habit create new connections in his brain, he becomes better able to call up these captured images: what a lost teddy looks like, the way to Grandma’s house, the ice cream and cake served at the party yesterday.
