A new study released that delaying the start of school until the age of seven provides mental benefits for the child. Yes, the best school age is actually 7 years old! 一项新的研究表明，将孩子入学年龄延迟到7岁会更有利于其身心健康发展。是的，最佳上学年龄其实是7岁！ There is strong evidence that delay to 7 years of age will reduce attention and hyperactivity until the end of the 11-year study, the effect is still significant. "We found that children who were delayed by 7 years of age in kindergarten, children's attention and hyperactivity were reduced by 73%," Professor Dee said. "Reducing attention and hyperactivity levels is a key factor in improving self-regulation." Self regulation is a person’s ability to control their impulses and modify their behaviour when they are trying to accomplish goals. A higher level of self regulation is linked to student achievement. children who started school later were able to sit still, pay attention and stay focussed for longer, which eventually resulted in higher scores at school. So the choice of delayed enrollment is the right approach. 有强有力的证据表明，延迟到7岁上学才减少注意力和多动症，直到11岁研究结束时，效果仍然显著。“我们发现，延迟到7岁上幼儿园孩子们的注意力和多动症减少了73%”，Dee教授说，“降低注意力和多动症水平是改善自我调节的关键要素。”自我调节是一个人在努力实现目标时控制自己的冲动和修改行为的能力，而更高层次的自我调节则与学生的成就相关。而晚一点上学的孩子们能够安静坐下来，集中注意力的时间比较长，最终导致了学校的高分。所以选择延迟入学才是正确的做法。
Early childhood expert Kathy Walker also said that when to send the child to school is a major decision of the parents, because parents want the children to thrive and won’t become a trouble-maker. But parents do not need to force their children go to school too early. Because for children, their childhood is the best time of their life. 儿童早期专家凯西·沃克（Kathy Walker）也表示什么时候把孩子送到学校是父母的一个重大决定，因为父母都希望孩子们能够茁壮成长，不吵不闹。但是父母没有必要急着让孩子去上学，孩子的童年是他们一生中最美好的时光。 Parents can also do a variety of activities with young children so that make full preparation before they enter school, which will have a positive impact on the future development of the child. For example: read with your children, teach them songs and nursery rhymes, play letters and numbers, take the children out to visit or let them make friend with other children. 父母也可以和孩子们做各种活动，为进入学校前做充分的准备，这都会对孩子的未来发展产生积极影响。比如：提前教你的孩子小学英语，教他们歌曲和童谣，玩字母和数字，带孩子出去到处游览或者让他们和朋友的孩子多打打交道。
