MOREIRA CEDENO, Cinthia Tatiana. USE OF BRAIN GYMNASTICS AND ITS IMPACT ON THE COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT OF CHILDREN. Revista San Gregorio [online]. 2019, vol.1, n.31, pp.100-109. ISSN 2528-7907.
The present investigation was carried out in response to the teachers’ need for dynamic and innovative activities and methods, which strengthen the interrelation with children. The methodology used was a mixed approach, a quasi-experimental research with exploratory and explanatory scope, with a qualitative-quantitative predominance; executed in the Initial Education Center “El Paraíso de los Niños” during the period 2016-2017 with groups of Sub-level 2; where it was intended to determine the incidence of Brain Gym in cognitive development. When establishing the tabulations, it is evident that the conclusions were favorable and the hypothesis was demonstrated. In this way, the proposed methodological tool collected a number of exercises in Brain Gymnastics that stimulated certain regions of the brain, in order to achieve an integral development, but especially those related to mental functions. The results obtained in the pre-test and post-test allowed to reach the conclusion that the proposed exercises increased the cognitive level of the children.
