Better Late than Early,
By A Customer
This review is from: Better Late Than Early (Paperback)
As I searched for books, for personal use, on early education I encountered this one, Better Late than Early. It carefuly and in an easy to read format explains the positive influences that delaying school entrance age to after 8 years. The first part covers the details concerning the state laws regarding school entrance requirement. And the second part guides you to the developmental stages of infancy, what to expect and how to provide, at home, proper stimulation for optimal skill development. An excellent book for those willing to go the extra mile to provide their children with an education begining at home!

Out of Date Research,
This review is from: Better Late Than Early (Paperback)
While Moore presents an interesting proposition that children should not be forced into school too early, the research that brings him to this conclusion is at least 35 years out of date. In the time since the book was published in 1975, scientists' understanding of brain development has skyrocketed. In the field of neuroscience, even 10 years makes a huge difference. I would encourage readers to consider Moore's premise, but do some research to see if it is still supported by scientific studies.
