Bantam Paperback
WB Price:$25.95
More than 65 delightful games and activities to
jump- start your baby's amazing brainpower. Can simply singing a song or blowing a dandelion under a toddler's nose help her mind to blossom? Can your baby count, remember events, and solve problems even before he can talk? The exciting answer to both questions is yes!
Breakthrough research is revealing the extraordinary inborn abilities of infants.
It is also showing how experiences during the first years of life profoundly influence intelligence, creativity, language development-and even later
reading and math skills._ Create a homemade mobile to stimulate your 3-month-old's problem-solving_ Play a patty-cake game to help your two-year-old make logical connections_Initiate conversations that build your child's memory and sense of personal history_ Develop "Baby Signs" to help your toddler communicate before he or she can talk_ Stimulate your child's natural number skills with puppets and counting games_ Use nursery rhymes and special read-aloud techniques to foster reading readiness_ Nurture budding creativity with humor and fantasy play. And much more! Baby Minds is not another program for creating "super babies." Instead it builds on activities that babies instinctively love to develop their unique abilities and make your daily interactions full of the joy of discovery-for both of you. 22.96
