I'll Drool On Myself Now

[flipped]

I was flipping through the channels on the TV last night, and PBS had some people talking about reading and providing stimulation to their babies and children. Apparently, this, even though the children don't fully understand it, develops the brain differently. Better. Brains who have not been read to as kids actually look different than brains

Hurray for Brains

In his best zombie voice, "Mmmm.. brains"

Not at all. Add away. Just don't think you'll get any brains out the deal. ;)

If that's the case, then more people should be brain damaged :) You're consistently one of the most interesting people I know.

Hmm, maybe that hammer to everyone's head isn't such a bad idea. ;)

I can't get past the smell of kids let alone their look. Stinky! ;)

Re: bah!

I bet your interest in reading doesn't hurt any either. That whole example thing. ;)

I thought that this was common knowledge?

Frogs are exempt from the reading, because the books get too soggy in the pond. ;)

Well, I think their point was that while reading to kids being a good thing is common knowledge, it isn't that widely known that it changes the physical makeup of the brain.

They did say this part of it was relatively very new information.

We lamenate our books before we take them home! ;)
