Homeschooling is no easy task at any age, but particularly at the tender age of our two little ones, it takes a lot of discipline and wisdom to be able to instill in their precious little lives the core values that we so truly believe in.
In a continued search for a better way, we stumbled upon the name "Glenn Doman," the founder of the Institute for the Achievement of Human Potential and developer of the concept of teaching brained injured children to be "normal." Further research brought to our attention a very interesting philosophy, not only for brain-injured children but for well children too, he claims that "you can teach your child absolutely anything as long as it is presented in an honest and factual way." This statement was very thought provoking, so we decided to go ahead and read some of Doman's work.
Needless to say, we were sold and began the process of developing our babies' intellect in three major categories: Teach them to Read (English for now), teach them Math, and how to be Physically Superb. The results have been short of astonishing.
There will be constant updates as to the progress of both, our 20 mo old and oour 3 mo old boys.
