Informative and very reader friendly....basically from the child's perspective...how Brain Gym helped them with learning difficulties. It still has all the details how Brain Gym works. A very quick read that gives a good introduction to lateral repatterning. It goes very well with the other Brain Gym book/s by the Dennison's and connects to other books by the author Carla Hannaford.A fascinating topic from any point of view...mine is in education. I am studying and using this as an educator and teacher. I would love to hear any of your stories about Brain Gym. r.keizer@pei.sympatico.ca

The theory behind Dennison's exercises is right on target. You will find some great brain-sharpening and brain-soothing exercises for kids here. However, the production values here are very low, which unfortunately gives an unprofessional impression. He doesn't offer much in the way of support for the Educational Kinesiology idea, which is bound to leave the uninitiated a little skeptical. Give this a try too: Power Brain Kids

I bought this book during my mid-life to use myself. I was surprised to find that I did exactly what this book explained - shutdown one side of my brain while I used the other side. The techniques work and have helped me. I would recommend it to anyone with learning and reading issues. It could be used as an effective game with children to support them during their school years. So simple and easy to use.

I would consider the book just somewhat interesting for someone studying this type of educating.

If this is the same book I read shortly after it came out, the information is extremely useful. I have a grandson that never really learned to crawl because of foot problems that required casts. I was able to "sneakily" work with him and improve his writing and thinking a great deal. He is now an adult and going into the medical field as an EMT/Paramedic with great success. Now I need to know if this is the same book I read so I can buy it instead of borrowing all the time.

I bought this book and the teachers addition at the same time. The information is useful but the presentation is impossible. It looks self published, needs editing, re-organization and much better design/graphics. It looks like a 3rd grader but it together. My son is 4 and reads at 5th grade level amoung other things. I am always looking for good information to help his development. You will find some here, but struggle to but it into an organized structure for presentation to your child.
