This is an interesting fact that I've heard from Dr Ken Gibson when I went to Colorado, US to learn more about cognitive abilities.
He shared with us: When a child is 3 to 7 months old, his brain begins wiring on his linguistic skills. If he is exposed to certain languages (like listening to cds in those languages) during this period of time, he will be able to master these languages 7 times faster than his peers when he grows up!
So, which language do you want your child to master in order for him to have the special advantage in this globalised economy?
PS: I'll write more on cognitive abilities and how they impact learning. Stay tune!
