Doman Kids- What happens when they grown up? Chat with an original Doman Mom

[TeachingMyToddlers]

I recently had the privilege of speaking with Patty, a mother who used Doman techniques with her daughter 20-30 years ago. Patty's daughter was among the first generation of "Doman Babies" at the IAHP. They lived in Philadelphia and Patty taught classes at the Institutes for several years. Her daughter was featured on a television show demonstrating encyclopedic knowledge at 2.5 years old. Patty also keeps in contact with the other Doman Parents she grew close to during the early years of her daughter's childhood.

Patty's passion for Early Learning never faded and she now has her own endeavors as the creator of PlayWisely classes in Texas and also is part of the joint venture production of Sparkabilities DVD's (which the digital version of PlayWisely classes). Originally, I contacted her about her classes but our conversation led to Doman and her experiences. I am thrilled to meet someone who can answer questions about her Doman experience and I convinced her to register here.   So, if you wanted an opportunity to speak with a Doman parent who's child is grown and what the end result of all the early stimulation was, here is your opportunity!

I let her know that I would make an introductory thread so any interested parents could chat with her. So ask away!

Neat!

I want to know how your children feel about their early learning.

And did your kids go to public, private, or home school? If not at home, did special accomadations need to be made?

Dear Patty,

I would like to know how's your daugther's performance in this 20 yrs? Any great influence on her achievements, behaviour etc.? Do you mind to share your experience and approaches used. Any blog/information we can refer to? Thanks!!

I would like to know how your daughter faired socially with other children her own age at the time? Did she like to play with other kids or did she prefer older children?

Will she use the Doman method with her own children?

Hello Patty,

I would love to know how much time you spent putting together materials for your daughter and how you went about doing it. For example reading, math, encyclopedic knowledge. What materials did you use to put them all together?

Dear Patty,

Its great to have u in this forum as a senior personal in the field of early learning. I would like to know about how much of EK did ur baby recollect once they grew up? It would also be great to know if the Doman method help in accelerated learning once they went to school? Did they also develop photographic memory as an effect of Doman method?Also is there any suggestions that you would give us on providing early learning opportunities for babies.

Thanks in advance for taking time to reply to our queries.

Patty! 

I'm looking forward to hearing your responses to the questions already listed!  I just thought I'd tell you that I LOVE Sparkabilities...and more so, my son LOVES IT!  I only wish you had a PlayWisely program here in Manitoba!

Wow, I had not seen these clips before and I'm floored! They look exactly like the toddler videos I've produced in my head. My kids (2 and 4) will flip, this is so their kind of thing right now!

I don't think I have any questions to add, but I'm looking forward to reading the answers too. My mom taught me how to read at 18mos using the Doman method and then stopped after being pressured by co-workers (she was an elementary school administrator), so I'm curious to see how someone my age who "went all the way" turned out!

Dear Patty! Thank you for visiting us!

Are Doman children happier or unhappier than others? At age 20, 30, 40.

Are there some most common professions for Doman children?

Are Doman children business people? Or they are scientists?

It is often said about clever children - he is clever but lazy. Is it about Doman children also?

How are Doman children doing in common schools? I mean what happens if they are not home schooled.

What are the main risks to avoid while parenting Doman children?

Hello Patty, how great we can chat with you 
I love Play Wisely but I have noticed you show numbers as well. Can numbers be shown to babies and toddlers?
Can be the PW method used in nursery school or is it only a parent- child thing same like doman?
We all love teaching our children and spending quality time with them. Is all this early learning going to make their school life easier?
Many thanks and looking forward to all your answers.

Okay wow, what a fantastic response! Let's give her a moment to catch up. I know she has a big project coming up and I am going to suggest she possibly answer one or two at a time for time management purposes if necessary. She's a valuable resource worth waiting for!  Then, maybe we can address a few more after she is able to respond to the current questions *if* she is up having her brain picked further. I just don't want to scare her away.  (I told her she would be popular around here, I'm not sure if believed me LOL...See Patty, we love you already by association alone!  )

[Krista G]

We patiently wait to meet you Patty...

[TeachingMyToddlers]

Just wanted to update the group that she let me know she is traveling right now and is going to make a special effort to jump on here in the next week or two when she can.
