It is believed that attachment will help build a child’s intelligence. When a parent is close to his/her child, the parent will be more attuned to the child’s inner mental processes and will also be more responsive to the baby. These will help promote secure attachments which appear to contribute to higher IQ. It is also suggested that children who feels connected to their parent(s) will become more interest in learning because they understand that learning is valuable to people who matter to them. Another tip to help increase your child’s intellectual performance is to praise your child for his/her effort and not how “smart” he/she is. This will help motivate a child to learn from their mistakes and continue trying in the face of challenges. Here is a great article on this topic: http://www.webmd.com/parenting/baby/features/can-you-boost-your-childs-iq And you can also refer to this article for suggestions of other factors that may help improve a child’s IQ: http://www.parentingscience.com/intelligence.html

Yes, it does. Not only does bonding with your child boost his confidence, it will also ease his fears and hesitations and prompt him to ask more questions and be more open about their feelings. It also depends on the type of activities that you perform with your child when you spend quality time with him. For example, I read a lot with my daughter whenever I am free and I can already see that she can read sentences on her own even though she's just 4. Other things that I do with her is watch informative shows with her on Discovery, which not only interest her, she also has so many questions to ask :)

On WebMD it says "One of these basic skills involves creating a template for close relationships, usually through early attachment to parents and caregivers. Critical to your child's emotional and social development, attachment also helps build your child's intelligence." So I would say yes indeed, how you interact with your child and what activities you do, would greatly influence their IQ early on in life. Not only IQ but I think we should be paying equal attention to EQ and Social skills as well.
