Physically developed musculoskeletal system of a child correlatively stimulates the development of all organs and systems of the body. Children who have learned to walk quickly - earlier than their peers - have a more developed level of intelligence.

Instructions
Step 1
Before your baby learns to sit, introduce a set of exercises for the development of the musculoskeletal system into daily practice. Start exercises from the first weeks of a child's life, they are very useful for him and help to strengthen the musculoskeletal system.
Perform the complex first for 2-3 minutes, then gradually increase the exercise time to 8-10 minutes. Start with a light massage of the extremities, the direction of movement should be from the toes up: to the hip joints of the legs and to the shoulder joint of the hands. As the baby grows, add elements of gymnastics to the massage. Bend and unbend the child's legs while doing a passive "bicycle". Simulate walking in a supine position, this exercise strengthens the ligaments of the knee joints well. Take the baby's heels, let it rest against your palms and push off. Usually these exercises give kids pleasure.
When the child learns to hold the head, start driving it, holding it under the armpits. Reflexively, the baby will rearrange the legs, first for a few seconds - then gradually increase the time.
Step 2
As the baby learns to sit on his own, he will gradually attempt to move himself. First, he will learn to crawl, this must be encouraged. As the child begins to crawl actively, he will develop spatial sensations.
Do not impede the crawling of the child and do not limit the area of his free movement with a playpen. As the baby masters his space, just protect him from possible injuries. Cover sharp corners with something soft, such as pillows or a blanket. Place bright toys around the room, this will be an additional cognitive stimulus for the child.
Never scold a kid if he does something wrong. Praise and reward, your emotional support is extremely important to the child.
Step 3
As soon as the child independently tries to get up and go, provide him with support for movement. These can be pieces of furniture, children often use them to maintain balance. Make him a horizontal bar: fasten one of the crossbars across the crib. Soon he himself will reach for her and use it for support. Hang a few small toys from the horizontal bar, trying to reach them - the baby will stand more and more firmly on his feet.
When he has mastered the first steps and will move on his own or by the hand, stimulate this skill as often as possible. Invite your baby to roll their stroller on their own, they usually do it with pleasure.
Don't be tempted to use a walker. Contrary to the popular belief about them as walking simulators, it has been noticed that children "from walkers" begin to walk on their own later than their peers. This is explained by the lack of stimulus for the child, and also the walker does not develop a sense of balance. In addition, cases of injuries when using a walker are quite common - a child can turn over in them.
The desire to teach your child to walk quickly will certainly yield results in terms of the development of his intellect.
