Children have a voracious appetite for knowledge and a hunger to learn. Their minds, from when they are born until they are about 12 years old, have the ability to absorb an incredible amount of information. So how you can, as a parent, optimise this period to mould your child’s mind, foster good learning habits, maximise his potential and give him the tools that he will need to develop into an exceptional individual? In this updated and expanded edition of Your Child Your Genius, neuroscientist and education specialist, Theva Nithy, not only debunks common parenting and child development myths, but also shows how you can create an engaging and stimulating environment that is conducive to learning. He also answers questions such as: How you can engage the mind of your young child?
• How you can prepare your child for future challenges?
• How you can foster your child’s interest in learning?
• Should you send your child to preschool?
• How much help should you give your child with homework?
• How much television should your child watch?
