Multiply your baby’s intelligence

It is easy and joyful to teach a eighteen-month-old how to draw or paint or to – well, to teach him to do anything that you can present to him in an honest and factual way.
When you teach a tiny child even one of these things, his intelligence rises.
When you teach a tiny child several of these things, his intelligence rises sharply.
When you teach all these things to a tiny child with joy and love and respect, his intelligence is multiplied.
And the best of all, when parents who truly love and respect their babies give them the gift of knowledge and ability, children are happier, kinder and more caring than children who have not been given these opportunities.
