What’s the most important thing to do during pregnancy? How does TV affect a child’s brain? What’s the best way to manage temper tantrums? Dr. John Medina, in his New York Times bestseller, reveals how our brains work and why we should rethink our environments. In this follow-up, he explores the latest science on raising smart and happy children from birth to age five. This book is set to transform parenting. One key insight: teaching impulse control can help children gain admission to their desired colleges. Medina bridges the gap between scientific knowledge and parental practice, using engaging stories to explain child brain development and optimization strategies. You’ll gain new perspectives on parenting, learning: where nature ends and nurture begins, the importance of shared household responsibilities, and the necessity of emotional safety for babies. It emphasizes that TV is detrimental for children under two, and that social skills are linked to future academic performance. The text highlights that happiness and intelligence are intertwined, and that praising effort is more beneficial than praising intelligence. Ultimately, the actions taken before and during pregnancy, and in the early years, will have lasting impacts on your children. This guide is essential for every parent.
