Summary
The first months after birth are vital to the long-term well-being of a child. Yet parents do not have the information they need to make their baby’s life as stimulating as it should be. How Smart Is Your Baby? provides parents with all the information required to help their baby achieve full potential. The authors first explain infant growth, and then guide parents in creating a home environment that enhances brain development. A developmental profile allows parents to track their child’s progress, determine strengths, and recognize where additional stimulation is needed.
Author Biography
Glenn Doman received his degree in physical therapy from the University of Pennsylvania in 1940, and began pioneering the field of child brain development. In 1955, he founded The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential, whose work with brain-injured children led to vital discoveries regarding well children. Glenn is the best-selling author of six books, all part of the Gentle Revolution Series.
Janet Doman is the director of The Institutes and Glenn's daughter. After completing her studies at the University of Pennsylvania, Janet devoted herself to helping parents discover the vast potential of their babies and their own potential as teachers.
