The president of the Families and Work Institute creates an audiobook of groundbreaking advice based on the latest research on child development.
Ellen Galinsky has spent her entire career studying early childhood development, first at Vassar College, then for 25 years at the Bank Street College of Education, and for the past 20 years as the founder and now president of the Families and Work Institute. What she has found is that there is an enormous gap between what researchers have discovered and what parents have been told about those discoveries. Mind in the Making bridges this gap, bringing the work of more than 100 scientists into a form that parents everywhere can use. Galinsky has divided this information into the seven skills she believes all children should learn, showing parents not only what children are capable of, but specifically how to develop those capabilities in their children.

Enlightening
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I found it’s aim to provide well researched evidence fails completely; wasting words explaining how the researchers moved from here be university to the next instead of explaining the promociones of the different studies cited and it’s implications on either parenting or education or may the links of both.
On the other hand the anecdotes, stories and practical ideas for parenting and education are well written and easy to implement. This is the best part of the book and worth reading.
Not too bad
