Wow that's amazing! What a lot of work! Do you use the cards as a regular part of your reading program or more for added interest?

I figured I'd do my own flash cards (words only, words and pictures) to flash, so those shaped ones would look good spread out over the wall! Another good thing to do is get second hand picture books and rip out pages and A4 laminate them.  I found a Sesame Street book good for this, which had pictures of "at the dentist", "in the classroom" etc, with words there next to various objects (and I wrote on more words, and put on labels like "hospital, fire station etc). Azaria loves cats, then dogs, so I do collages about those animals and put words on about them, like "cat" in capitals and small letters, "miaow", "kitten" "Pussy-cat"... later on I will do one with cat in different languages. Just using the cat food boxes for pictures and words to cut out has worked well. (I just bought different brands).  And catalogues.

Yes, I do! And now I'm looking at moving house (moving town), to give my kids a better life, a more country environment, so that'll be alot of work!! But hopefully it will be worth the effort!

thanks for the compliment, but it's four kids, not two!! And it sure gets complicated, with the relationships between their friends, and each other etc...

Hi!

That's a wonderful idea!

I've just a question regarding your wall posters (with words/pictures) related to right-brain development:  As I recall that in order to tap/access/stimulate the right-brain we have to flash/show the flashcards in one second or less per word or picture. Will it affect the right-brain stimulation if the baby will stare on the word/picture posted on the wall?

I was planning before to paste all the learning board materials that I have on the wall. But when I learned/heard of the right-brain stimulation, I didn't pursue that plan. 

Is this ok? Thanks

The wall is left brain learning, so if you flash cards the right brain way, and do the wall thing, which is the same as looking at picture books, which you look at for ages, then look at again and again, you are doing ALL brain learning, which is the best way... to do right and left.

Great work!
I started doing the same thing in my daughter's bedroom but she's desperately trying to rip whatever it is I stick on the walls.
When she was a bit younger, I taped some shapes and the words Mum and Dad inside her cot, and one morning I found her chewing on the 'Dad' signed she had managed to remove...  :-)
