First, let’s get to know what IQ and EQ are and how they differ.
IQ or Intelligence Quotient
It is intelligence and the ability to think, reason, and connect things. Therefore, this ability is definitely directly related to learning and academic studies.
EQ or Emotional Quotient
It is the ability to perceive emotions, the mind, and the development of thoughts and feelings. Although it may seem like a matter of emotions, it is just as important as IQ because it is a part that promotes social skills for children, emotional control, and concentration. It helps promote learning and makes children ready to learn.
We know the difference between IQ and EQ. A common question is how high should our child’s IQ and EQ be? Today, Kiidu will show you the answer.
Normally, we measure IQ and EQ only when we want to test the development of children. But in some cases, EQ can be measured when the child has mood swings or aggressive behavior or abnormal behavior that we can observe.
Development of EQ or living with others, thoughts and feelings are usually measured by tests or experts. Development in this part can also be developed through various activities that parents or some families with nannies or especially nannies and tutors will be able to help develop EQ for their children, such as exercising, going out to do outdoor activities to open perspectives, including doing various creative arts or music.
Develop intelligence in various aspects, including calculation and reasoning, or IQ.
Normally, everyone has it since birth and it develops over time. Therefore, the appropriate age for children to measure is between 6 and 16 years old.
The average IQ level of children is normal according to the information from the Paolo Hospital website.
90 – 109 is a normal IQ value.
80 – 89 is an IQ value that is slightly lower than normal. That is, you can learn normally, but may be slightly slower in almost every area, especially academics.
70 – 79 is an abnormally low IQ value, meaning there is an intellectual disability.
Parents or nannies can help promote development in this area through various activities, both academic and recreational, such as simple math, coloring, playing skill-building games, doing jigsaw puzzles, building Legos, etc.
Knowing this, as parents, we should help build skills so that children develop well according to the criteria to be ready to handle every situation in the future, whether it is about studying or daily life. When children are ready for every situation, parents will be free from worries.
