The position and postural attitudes of a child

The position and postural attitudes of a child is different in different sequence of time. This study was carried out within 10 minutes, but the interesting thing is that, the child took more than 25 postures, which clearly defines about her mood influences, which played the most important role to maintain the postural attitudes of her body. Here, the child body is related with her psychology and behavior to attend the position like that. Its a very difficult to understand someones mind and mood, but observation shows that, whatever we do any work or play or do something, its the mood influences muscle tone, energy level, ones internal sense of well being and the current state of mind, play a important role to change the behavior and pattern of doing something.

Analysis Analysis of body posture of a child

While describing about the postural attitudes of a child, the surrounding environment also play an important role to define the mood of a child with emotional activites like anger, happy, sadness, muscle movement with biological, behavioral, cognitive and socio-cultural perspectives. As we know that posture is defined as the way we hold our body when we are standing, sitting or lying down, whether characteristic or assumed for a special purpose. To analyse the postural attitudes of the child, it is quite much difficult to understand the child emotions, but also to understand the important social factor, we can determine by describing the mood and emotion which the child posses within the time captured in the camera. Convincing a child is the difficult job, in the name of chocholate and jelly, this study was carried out The picture 1 describes about her standing position where there is a movement of the body parts took place. The hand was stretched upward and next to the wall. Both the hand was moved, body and the leg was also stretched. It seems as if she is trying to move her hand and she is looking to the ceiling. There is also the movement of head and observing the condition of a position of child, here we can see that for a child it is very difficult to maintain good posture. The mood influence of a child is happy and the facial expression of a child seems she love to play ownself and do any kind of activities what she posses. The time taken to stood up like this is upto 30 second. The 2nd picture describes the same thing but the body parts has already changed from the first one. Here is a muscle movement of hand, leg and the body or the abdominal parts incomparison to the first one. The facial expression has changed from happy to next silent mood as if she is thinking that there is no one to play with her and mood influences is somewhat sad behavior.

The fourth picture describes that there is a whole body movement from head to leg and her mood activity shows that she is trying to jump and stay in the bed. Here the child is spending her time doing such kind of activities to entertain herself. The 5th picture describes that she is having fun and enjoying her day with smile and moving the muscles of the body postures, which is opposite of Y shaped postural attitudes.

The body postures was changes frequently as we know it is much difficult to understand the child behavior and is much un predicatable like other age group of people. The child again posses the same position which she posses at the earlier time. The mood influences and the facial expression was similar in sad and silent position. While staying at that positions she is feeling ok

Picture 18 describes that when a child changes her position or postural attitudes, its hard to believe all that and makes more eager to know about their mood and emotional behavior. Here in this picture, what came in her mind, she asked mother to change her dress and taking pencil and note book, she went on studying and writing in note book. The position is different than the other posture studied till this period. There is a muscular movement of the body parts.
