Square One Publishers How to Teach Your Baby Math (The Gentle Revolution Series)

Great book .. im a fan and implementer of the doman method .. the book was an easy read written clearly and logically and really makes you understand how and why ur kid can learn math at a young age great work highly recommended

I love all the Glenn Doman books and have used them with varying degrees with all my children. We are now into the second generation. I attended the course at the Institute and am a firm believer that it does make a difference. My kids are very well adjusted and extremely accomplished and people always ask how I raised such smart, well adjusted children. Did I do everything as those who participate in the Institute did. NO! I have a very busy career, am a community volunteer, wife, & daughter to aging parents! I did what I could, and made it fun for all of us. People thought I was nuts at the time so I seldom talked about the program but enjoyed seeing the results. When my daughter was in ninth grade and took European history, she could name all the European painters without studying them. She was amazed! She kept asking, "Mom how do I know this?" I confess, I love art and spent a great deal of time making cards on the great artist when she was little. I am an interior designer. I believe her brain stored this information until she needed it. Today, this child is working on her M.D./PhD in neuroscience. I wasn't as good with the math as I probably should have been. It was difficult for me. So my kids are ok in math, not great. I just did what I could...Recently, I read in a best seller business book that Asians teach their children math in the same way Mr. Doman suggests in this book. Regardless if you choose to believe in this program or not, I encourage you to make learning fun for your little ones.I believe babies are sponges and love to learn and the connection between you and your baby is rewarding! We are now teaching this to our second generation.

The system for teaching math begins by teaching quantity. The method uses flash cards having different numbers of red dots. You can make the dot flashcards yourself. You say the quantity when the card is held up. From quantity, you move to addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The system is easy and makes sense. Regardless of what method you use, the book points out, correctly, that your little one is going to learn. The key is begin early, teach often and most importantly, have fun. An important point you should be aware of is that a baby has the ability to discern quantity by sight. For examples, a baby can see at once 50 dots on a flash card and know there are 50 dots on it. This ability is lost by the time a child enters school. You little one will either learn to use it or will lose it. Good luck and have fun!

my daughter is 1 year old now and i believe in early learning of kids. though opinions vary on this matter so i have turned to experts and in the pursuit i bought this book too I liked what is written of authors vast research and experience and itinspires to follow the ideas he mentioned. Now result of such actions can be checked with time only but the book gives a sincere reading on development of a human say childs mind and its endless possibilities if exposed to. It is a good read for anyone whose child has special needs

Best book ever!!!!

Very interesting concept. Been slowly working with our daughter on this.
