Logical training enables babies to make connections between pieces of information.
Creativity
Colors, shapes, learning how to draw, getting familiar with music and rhythm, all goes to aid the growth of a child's creativity.
Linguistics
Linguistic Intelligence is the ability to use sound and language for expression and comprehension of others while a child is developing.
Emotion
