Teaching Babies is Easy

Babies have no concept of fear or failure. They believe their sole purpose is to learn all they can as quickly as they can. Often times we neglect to teach our babies all we can during these years of intellectual development. We have been conditioned to believe that children must be older to learn such important things.

This is not true, as is evidenced by the number of children that have learned to read as babies.
Parents that are aware of the power that these little brain's possess set out to create as rich and stimulating an environment for their babies as possible.

They realize that reading to their baby is very important. They talk to their child as though they can understand, and they do. Never again will these children be able to learn so much so easily. Parents that have become aware of their baby's potential to learn immediately set about to stimulate their babies.
Teaching babies is very easy.

They do not learn the way older children do. Babies can take in information at an amazing rate. Imagine that babies are able to learn to read without even knowing the alphabet first. Babies have been learning to read for many years now.

The lessons are enjoyable for the baby. The lessons are quick and baby catches on readily. Instead of teaching babies the alphabet, parents first teach their babies whole words.

Through continue exposure to these whole words, the babies learn to read these words but also much more. Their little brains are able to recognize the phonetic rules and patterns in the words they are reading. Once this happens, babies can begin to read new words phonetically, although they have learned to read using the whole word method.

Babies can learn much more than just how to read. They are able to recognize quantities without having to count and are able to do instant math in their heads if they are exposed to a math program during the first 2 years of life.

Babies can also be taught to recognize and identify all kinds of objects from their environment such as plants, flowers, cars, insects, animals and more. There is no limit to what you can teach your baby. Your baby is ready and willing to learn whatever they find exciting. What will you teach your baby today?
