Maybe someone can advise me here but what are you supposed to do with kids that start reading and doing math early?
My three year old is reading and doing all the math I can throw at him and I was a dumb kid growing up so I have no idea what I'm supposed to do (ie private school, tutoring, testing, music lessons, educational psychologists, just chilling out and hiking with him etc)
Anyway loved reading about this guys method but was hoping for more guidance. If anyone has any thoughts or advice Im super curious / feeling lost.
- leetrout 3y agoOur kid show(s/ed) an aptitude for letters and numbers with a strong memory when she was around that age and we just ignored it. I just want my kid to have a "normal" upbringing. You are likely to get several differing opinions but here is a vote for "do nothing" and see what comes.
- gnicholas 3y agoCheck out Mentava [1] (backed by Garry Tan, IIRC). Their goal is to have kids reading and doing basic math much younger, so that they are ready for high school level coursework by the time they are in late elementary school. I heard about it after my kids were too old for the program, but it sounds interesting. 1: https://www.mentava.com/program https://www.mentava.com/program
