Einstein Never Used Flash Cards

How Our Children Really Learn--and Why They Need to Play More and Memorize Less
Jul 06, 2011dprodrig rated this title 3.5 out of 5 stars
This book addresses childhood learning from birth to about age 6. I wish it had focused on the older years. It was well written, with a heavy emphasis on delineating the studies to support their points of view and offered excellent suggestions on how to maximize your child's learning in a natural manner (for those who like some tips). I've never understood the need for flash cards or IQ tests to determine or support intelligence at these ages, so this book was also an interesting peek into the behaviours that some parents engage in to give their children the best possible advantages in life.
