Hi,
There is nagging question that confounds the conventional theory of parenting. Is it possible to build children brain beyond a certain limit that has been already decided by nature? If at all, parents work hard to build better brains in their children, what would be the most recommended activities and exercises? Brain building in children is a project by itself, and this project starts, when parents just nudge and push their young children to streamline their brain activities and functions.

Building efficient brains in children is a long process, when children hone and refine many common skills like social, cognitive, mental, attitudinal, thinking and physical activities. It is just like building a well-equipped house where engineers place and position appropriate components at the right place. Innumerable child education experts are recommending the basic concepts of whole brain development to help parents learn and master the basics of child brain optimization. Have a nice day!

Thought for today:
       "Ability is what you're capable of doing.
        Motivation determines what you do.
        Attitude determines how well you do it." - Raymond Chandler
