"Teaching Brendan at Home"

When Brendan was 9 months old, I read this wonderful book called How to Teach Your Baby to Read by Glenn Doman.  Ever since then, I have been incorporating Doman's methods into Brendan's life.  I have since read the other books in the series by Glenn Doman, How to Teach Your Baby Math, How to Give Your Baby Encyclopedic Knowledge, and How To Teach Your Baby to be Physically Supurb.  We have developed a program that has worked well for us, which emphasizes Encyclopedic Knowledge ("Bits of Intelligence").  If this sounds strange to you, read on.

The basic idea is making special flashcards called "Bits" and putting them into categories of about 10 or so and showing them (very fast - about 1 per second) to the child.  The younger a child is the faster they learn because their brain is developing so rapidly.  Still sound strange?  Well, it WORKS, and the child just thinks it's FUN!  We also go beyond Doman's methods and supplement with educational video and audio tapes, and a foreign language program that is a bit different than Doman's.  Oh, and of course we use the computer!

		"Bits of Intelligence" are the fancy flashcards that are the Glenn Doman method.  This section includes videos of Brendan (at 19 months) demonstrating his love for knowledge and working with the bits.
		See the educational video tapes that we use.  This is how Brendan learned his letters and numbers.
		Read about the educational audio tapes we use.  This is how Brendan learned to add and multiply, as well as became familiar with names of countries and states and capitals, to name a few.
		Find out about the foreign language videos with "Muzzy".
		Read about Brendan's computer class at "Be Smart Kids" and how we use the computer at home.
		Check out some great links to educational sites!  Includes sites that offer educational products and sites that have great pictures for making "bits".
		See some pictures of my trip to Glenn Doman's School, The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential in Pennsylvania, taking the "How to Multiply Your Baby's Intelligence" course.  What a great way to spend a week!!
