閃咭學習有暗患？

Doman does NOT just ask us to flash cards. He emphasises on physical activities even more. Doman kids at the Philladelphia centre runs a quarter of a mile a day, do log rolls, sommersaults, brachiate etc etc on a daily basis. The most important Doman book is NOT How to Teach Your Child to Read but Teach Your Child to Physical Superbness.

Physical activities develop the brain, much more so than flashing cards. Flashing cards without the physical element CAN lead to all sorts of problems, incl lack of concentration etc. I have seen that in many kids. Of course, each person's brain is different. Some are NOT affected by flashing withOUT the physical side. These kids are lucky.

But as a mother, if one is to start flashing cards, "buy the insurance" and ensure you do the physical activities as recommended by Doman. O/w you may regret at a later stage when the child has some issues.

In fact, if you read Glen Doman's books carefully, you'd find that his "prescription" for kids are a combination of physical activities, word cards, music and foreign languages. They come as a complete basket, not for us to take some and leave some out.
