[quote=Anonymous]http://www.learnmoremn.org/userFiles/File/solutions/mnmeeting_summary.pdf "We know that by age three, children in low-income households have 1,000 fewer words in their vocabulary than middle-income children. Start Early and Go the Distance – [u]Closing a one-year gap is easier than closing a 3- or 8-year gap[/u]. Trying to catch up a high school student who reads at a third-grade level is working against the odds.... effective early intervention reduces the need for later remediation..." We start out BEHIND -this is the key. Teaching your kid shapes through use of toys helps them not be behind. Talking to them helps them not be behind. It starts early. It is not taking a kid's childhood to prepare your child. The PP is a moron and his./her attitude is sickening. [/quote]
