內容簡介


　　孩子過早加入學業競賽的行列，將來不見得會贏在終點。三位在兒童早期發展領域享有盛名的兒童心理學家帶領讀者一一檢視最新幼兒學習研究結果，聯名提出證明：在托兒所時期就趕著用識字卡訓練三歲幼童，免得孩子輸在起跑點上，這樣的作法其實並沒有長期效益。作者觀察到時下父母一心一意創造愛因斯坦嬰兒，因而呼籲父母不需操之過急，事實上，作者建議父母不需要急著坐在桌前教導孩子1,2,3或A,B,C，因為，孩子在啟蒙期間最好的學習方法就是寓教於樂。跟孩子玩些簡單的遊戲反而對於啟發心智最有幫助。創意和獨立思考是21世紀真正必備的技巧，而IQ和其他測驗分數不過是一種狹隘的智商觀點。這是一本每個父母、祖父母、幼教老師、保姆、小兒科醫生及幼教政策制訂者必讀的好書。

by Kathy Hirsh-Pasek, Diane Eyer, Roberta Michnick Golinkoff

Authors and child psychologists Hirsh-Pasek, Golinkoff and Eyer join together to prove that training preschoolers with flash cards and attempting to hurry intellectual development doesn't pay off. In fact, the authors claim, kids who are pressured early on to join the academic rat race don't fair any better than children who are allowed to take their time. Alarmed by the current trend toward creating baby Einsteins, Hirsh-Pasek and Golinkoff urge parents to step back and practice the "Three R's: Reflect, Resist, and Recenter." Instead of pushing preschoolers into academically oriented programs that focus on early achievement, they suggest that children learn best through simple playtime, which enhances problem solving skills, attention span, social development and creativity. "lay is to early childhood as gas is to a car," say Hirsh-Pasek and Golinkoff, explaining that reciting and memorizing will produce "trained seals" rather than creative thinkers. Creativity and independent thinking, they argue, are true 21st-century skills; IQ and other test scores provide a narrow view of intelligence. The authors walk parents through much of the recent research on the way children learn, debunking such myths as the Mozart effect, and pointing out that much learning unravels naturally, programmed through centuries of evolution. Although the research-laden text is sometimes dense, parents will find a valuable message if they stick with the program, ultimately relieving themselves and their offspring of stress and creating a more balanced life.
