It's easy to think that children are either blessed with a high degree of intelligence or they aren't, and there's nothing we can do as parents to affect how smart they become.

Yet, studies have shown that when it comes to intelligence, nature vs. nurture is roughly 50/50, which means that parental influence may have a significant impact not just on how clever our children feel they are, but also on how bright they are. The verbal and cognitive skills that a kid acquires in early infancy and childhood equip them with the social and emotional life skills needed to succeed in life.

This book will provide you with strategies that you can use to raise a smart and happy child. Starting from their first few weeks at home, up to the age of five, there will be tips for every step of the way. It will transform the way you speak with your child, as well as the way you bond with them.
