Summary
Parent Nation : Unlocking Every Child's Potential, Fulfilling Society's Promise
This book explains exactly what parents need to know about enhancing healthy brain development - how to physically interact with kids (at their level), how to talk about math, new ideas on how to build grit and character, among many other practical insights. Readers will see from fascinating research illustrated with compelling stories that across ethnicities, faiths, and the socio-economic spectrum, kids need essentially the same things when it comes to healthy brain development - and it all starts with the parents.
