5.0 out of 5 stars Body and brain are tightly coupled, July 24, 2005

This review is from: How to Teach Your Baby to Be Physically Superb (Hardcover)

The main issue of this book is that mental and physical development of a baby are tightly coupled. Physically perfect body gives more blood, oxygen and energy to the brain which reinforces the development of the body, which is most obvious for ages up to 36 months.

The author splits the development of the brain and the body to seven stages depending on age, and gives methods and joyful exercises for a baby to be physically superb.

This review is from: How to Teach Your Baby to Be Physically Superb (Hardcover)

I do not get enough time to follow all the methods, but I still did few things as per book. My son stands by himself at eactly 7 months. He started climbing stairs at 7 month. I put him on the floor more often. This book is surely helpful.
Only thing is it's difficult to make things like dowel between doors, track. They should sell those items too as part of the kit.

This review is from: How to Teach Your Baby to Be Physically Superb (Gentle Revolution Series) (Hardcover)

This book will give you a greater insight into the physical development of your child and what to do to fulfill its potential, instead of letting your child grow "by accident."
