Learning about How your child’s brain works is crucial to support their mental health well being and mind’ s development, having this knowledge will help you see your child from a different perspective.

Here are some neurological variations that can affect the way your child learns. Ignoring the signs will only hold back your child and your family.

Here is a brief description:

📌Dysgraphia: A learning difficulty specific to writing
📌Dyslexia: A learning difficulty specific to reading.
📌Dyscalculia: A learning difficulty specific to Mathematics
📌Dyspraxia: A learning difficulty specific to fine & gross motor.

People with neurological differences are not broken or incomplete versions of normal people, they just learn and think differently and they only need to be accepted and understood.

Please if you have seen some of these signs check with your child’s pediatrician.
