I love this program!
I love all the Glenn Doman books and have used them with varying degrees with all my children. We are now into the second generation. I attended the course at the Institute and am a firm believer that it does make a difference. My kids are very well adjusted and extremely accomplished and people always ask how I raised such smart, well adjusted children. Did I do everything as those who participate in the Institute did. NO! I have a very busy career, am a community volunteer, wife, & daughter to aging parents! I did what I could, and made it fun for all of us. People thought I was nuts at the time so I seldom talked about the program but enjoyed seeing the results. When my daughter was in ninth grade and took European history, she could name all the European painters without studying them. She was amazed! She kept asking, "Mom how do I know this?" I confess, I love art and spent a great deal of time making cards on the great artist when she was little. I am an interior designer. I believe her brain stored this information until she needed it. Today, this child is working on her M.D./PhD in neuroscience. I wasn't as good with the math as I probably should have been. It was difficult for me. So my kids are ok in math, not great. I just did what I could...Recently, I read in a best seller business book that Asians teach their children math in the same way Mr. Doman suggests in this book. Regardless if you choose to believe in this program or not, I encourage you to make learning fun for your little ones.I believe babies are sponges and love to learn and the connection between you and your baby is rewarding! We are now teaching this to our second generation.

Excellent book!
Using this book, it really IS possible to teach a 1 or 2 yr old to understand numbers, do addition, subtraction, multiplication and division equations, understand greater than and less than and even a simple algebra equation like 1 + y = 9. Simply amazing and will give your child a huge advantage in life.

Great book but some of the texts are duplicate with the How to Read Book
I bought this after I read the How to Teach your Baby to read book. There were alot of information that was the same as the Reading book so it was much faster to read this book.I love Doman’s books and I regret I did not know about this book when i was pregnant and had time to spare. But, better late than never. I highly recommend this book - it is a must read

A nice book to read (but why not borrow it?)
I rate this 5 stars not because it's extremely well written, or because I followed it perfectly and got great results but instead 1) because I think it has some valuable concepts to understand if you really want to teach your baby math. Like the difference between teaching counting and teaching quantity and 2) I think it is very helpful with understanding the *potential* your baby has to understand math. Really. You aren't going to get your baby to understand math extremely well unless you understand that it's even possible. This book can help convince you of that. :) And 3) Respect for the authors' efforts in researching and disseminating the topic.

It works!! Kids love it
Awesome....Kids are sponges. This teaches you precisely how to help your child learn math as far as you want to take them(add, sub, mult, square roots, ect.) There is no limit on age or when to begin. It is fun, focused and accomplished in just seconds or a couple minutes a day!! No JOKE. I used it with my babies and toddlers. It's easy because it teaches you how the child's developing mind learns and then tells you how to use these simple concepts to teach them. They loved it. Us moms love it because it works and they love it!!

Amazing chalenge!!!
BUT!!! There are certain conditions you must have.First - your baby doesn't mind to see your flash cards at least 15 times a day (not to forget that every time she is supposed to be happy about it!). In case you teach your baby a few programs, like math, reading, ect., you should be busy with the cards every 15 min. 'Coze studying just one program takes time and accordingly the Doman's statement the older the baby is the harder to teach her.Second - you are staying home mother with lots of free time (to prepare the materials and to prepare the way you show those flash cards) PLUS you have a supportive husband (which is not our case)So, basically, even if this method is extremely good for the kid's development, in some cases it simply can't be used.
