Guide Review - Teach Your Baby Math

Whether you're a homeschooler or a parent, your baby will benefit from a nurturing learning environment which begins at home. I'm certainly a fan of early numeracy and in the ability of the brain to learn at a very early age, even as early as infancy. If you have the time to commit to the strategies in this hardcover book, your baby will most likely benefit. Research is now indicating that an infant's brain is capable of excelling in areas of math and literacy. Although not yet proven, the potential benefits are substantial if you adhere to and commit to the strategies suggested. The author uses a system of colored dots as opposed to numerals and symbols. He feels that it's essential to address the mathematical concepts first - he's right!
