2. Flash the Cards

Have you heard about the right brain education programmes like The Shichida Method and Glenn Doman’s series of guidebooks such as Teach your baby to read?

These programmes predominantly advocate the use of flashcards to activate the right brain.

“The secret to training the right side of the brain is through speed flashing because it activates the part of the brain that fosters our imagination, memorisation skills, and visualisation abilities.”

You could consider alternating between speed and slow flashing the cards to activate both sides of the brain.

If you are wondering how you should be conducting the flashcards lesson with your baby, you should certainly check out this video here which summarises the key highlights from Glenn Doman’s Teaching Methodology.
