Training before normal maturation is generally

Every child has his own set of qualities. Also, there is the right time to learn a skill. The time at which a child becomes ready to learn is called maturation.

Maturation interpreted as a relatively permanent change in an individual, such as cognitive, emotional, or physical, that occurs as a result of biological aging, regardless of personal experience.

Things to remember during training:

• A child can learn a new skill prematurely or late.
• Training of a child to learn a new skill is worth appreciating but it should be remembered that the child is mature enough to learn.
• Premature training may be both beneficial or harmful for the children based on the methodology used by the trainer in the training process.
• For example, for a primary school child to multiply 895 and 568 is tough, explaining to him to multiply this may be troublesome and a burden for him. But there are instances when a child learns to multiply numbers of this extent using an abacus it becomes easy for him/her.

Hence, it could be concluded that training before normal maturation is generally beneficial or harmful depending on the method used in training.
