Children do well if they can and if they can't we need to figure out why so we can help.

Education - what do our children need?Education has now become how to cram as much information into our children, as early as possible. To prepare them for this 'information' age. Research is available, however, that contradicts this approach. Please investigate all types of education, including alternative education before proceeding. Sometimes schools may label themselves 'the best' but they may be just expensive, competitive academic institutions. The spirit of young children, and their brain development, thrives better on creativity, individuality, imagination and play. |
