Help Your Preschooler Build a Better Brain: A Complete Guide to Doing Montessori Early Learning at Home

by John Bowman

From birth to about 6, a child's brain is in a unique, rapidly developing, self-structuring process. Children develop most of their fundamental brain architecture by age 6. This book contains easy early learning activities parents can do at home to help their 2-6 yr. old develop a stronger brain and realize more of their potential. These are the same activities children do in Montessori and other high quality preschools, modified for easy use in the home. These activities help young children develop strong brain architecture, a positive, confident self-image, and early reading, writing, math, and science skills - a great preparation for success in school. Most activities use common items parents may already have or which can be inexpensively obtained. Recommendations are given for a selection of very affordable Montessori and other quality early learning materials, and over 150 of the best educational tablet apps, as well as a guide for safely introducing preschoolers to digital media. This excellent guide shows parents how to be effective home teachers, and how to create, display, and demonstrate activities to their child. It contains complete activity sequences for teaching a young child math and how to read. Includes activities designed to help a young child develop functional independence skills in daily life, improve sensory perception and discrimination, and explore interesting science experiences. An easy to follow guide that is rich in activities proven to have a dramatic positive effect on a young child's development.
