An interesting book certain parts more difficult, but overall an engaging book that has helped me understand the difficulties my daughter and son are faced with.

This is an informed text. I was especially interested in the connection of music to learning - something I had long felt to be true but had never read anything to support my own conclusions.

Excellent resource for parents and teachers
16 Nov 2008
Format:Paperback
I heard Sally Blythe speak in the UK a few weeks ago, and was very taken with her message. As a teacher with over 40 years experience, I recognized many difficulties children had in learning, but never realized the extent to which infant development impacted children as they grew. I always wanted the children who wrote with their heads on the desks, and their arms outstretched to the paper, to "sit up straight" to do their best writing. I learned through this book that this child has not gone beyond infantile reflexes because she has not had the opportunity to crawl and creep and climb. So often infants and young children are placed in car seats or carried that it limits their physical growth and later their ability to be attentive in a classroom. All teachers of young children should be aware of what is at stake here, and parents may need to give their children more "floor time" in order to stimulate and develop these critical powers. I highly recommend this book because it also offers ideas for overcoming deficits which persist in older children.

50 out of 10 !!!!
28 Aug 2005
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This last year alone, I have spent many hundreds of hours researching the Vestibular System, and the effects of quality exercise and nutrition upon it, and the developing body. I wish I had discovered this book earlier - the majority of that time I could have utilised going deeper into the wide range of references Sally Goddard Blythe has also provided.
I have been actively encourageing my colleagues in the High School situation, in different Martial Arts organizations, and in the Circular Strength Training groups, to purchase this text as a integral and very valuable resource.
I would also love to meet this lady - what a absolute treasure house of ideas she would be, for stimulating new, exciting ways of instruction for all.

The Well-Balanced Child
31 Aug 2005
Format:Paperback
This book is wonderful for those interested in the development of babies into childhood. It puts perspective as to why some children have learning issues, and how their development as babies directly impacts their learning later in life.
