Tony Buzan takes a fascinating and exuberant look at the enormous potential of a child's brain and provides parents with the practical tools they need to help their children achieve it. Mind maps, memory games and other techniques allow parents to encourage learning and development for children of all ages. Research shows that the time and energy you dedicate to your child in the first five years pays off dividends for the next ten. Tony Buzan has written the this "operations manual" to help parents liberate their child's true brain potential. He explains how the brain develops and the simple things you can do to stimulate your child's multiple intelligences - including social, creative, numerical and physical activities - and unlock his or her natural genius.
