How to help children with mental retardation
If a child is found to have mental retardation, parents should not treat it as a burden, but should treat it correctly, actively educate and treat it in time. As parents, never lose confidence and care for children, which is the key to help children get out of trouble. You can improve your child's intelligence through the following three points:

Improve self-care ability.

Children are mentally retarded and have poor self-care ability. The way to change this situation is that parents should not do everything themselves, and don't feel that educating their children is too much trouble and lose patience. They should break down their life skills into several decomposition actions so that they can learn and master them step by step.

Sensory perception and motor development training

Sensory training includes vision, hearing, touch, taste and smell. Children with mental retardation can participate in activities through games, so that various senses can feel good stimulation, and their physical coordination and hand-eye coordination skills can be trained.

Encourage children to do what they can.

In the process of educating children with mental retardation, we should start with children's diet, clothing and self-care, and gradually enhance their self-care ability.
