Disney's Magic English - A good continuity follow-up after “My Baby Can Read!”

I am sure that some of you heard about DVD program called “My Baby Can Read!” from LLC which c/w 4DVD, flash cards and books which was developed in the late 1990s by Robert Titzer, an educator with a Ph.D. in human performance. In spite of some controversial issues in United States on this product, my colleague have satisfied with this product, which his 1 year old toddler can say “HI” after a flashcard shown by his father.

When you see carefully it actually not baby reads(as they not learn phonic yet), but baby memorize as the baby frequently watches the program again and again.

What have some education expert says, between 0-4 years, children's brain grows around 50% and during this time it is just like sponge which absorb(learning & memorize) anything around them. So during this time you should feed their brain with early education & good knowledge.
