We are starting to use right brain education to our son

[nhockaday]

Yes, she helped me more than the website!

Then I would say this entails a karma point to you Teresa

Thank you nohayo and nhockaday! It's my pleasure to share. Would be awesome if all our kids become super kids!!

Hi Teresa,
  I'm a new member here and I'm very interested on twinkle wind DVD. Are you buying the DVD online? Are we able to buy it locally? Because I'm not prefer to buy through online.  I'm from Penang.

Thanks a lot for your information,
Wai Leng

Hello Wai Ling,

Nice to meet you here in the forum! I am sure you will fall in love with all the discussions and information that you can find from here!

I bought my DVD through http://www.rightbrainkids.com/jv/hop/?af=742989 online. I am not sure if there's any store that carries the actual product... I guess you can email them and ask. I looked at the web site and saw that they are based in Chicago.

You can go to their web site http://www.rightbrainkids.com/jv/hop/?Clk=2320029 and send them an email. They have a contact page!

Hope it helps!

Hi all,

There is another right brain method which i'm starting my 2 yr old son in July. It's called the shichida method. Like what teresa has explained, it too boasts remarkable improvements in children who have followed their method loyaly for at least  2 years.

The basic concepts taught include:
Memory linking
Spatial recognition
Dot cards
Flash Cards etc

I'll let you know more once i've started the lessons...  :tongue2:

Hi anushyam

We would love to hear about your experiences at the Shichida Academy! As there are only courses in Japan, Malaysia and Singapore - and the academy does not release specific information about its lessons - it is hard to pinpoint the details of the Shichida Method from a distance.

Also, I would love to know how your son takes to the lessons.

I found this funny video of a child's first day at the Shichida Academy - thought you all might enjoy it

Hi anushyam,

Are you taking your son to class or are you teaching him at home (If this is the case, where did you get the materials?)?

Are the flash cards similar to those of Doman?

Yes, it would be great to know how the Shichida Method goes! Please share with us about your son's progress!

Hi teresa, maddy,

I'm going to take my kid to classes held at the Shichida acadamy. It only starts in July but i did some extensive research before enrolling him. You are right to say that there is very limited materials and info regarding this method. Here's what I gathered about the syllabus.

Flash Cards -- similar to what is done at Little readers cat files

Math dot cards -- similar to doman mthd (i.e. don't teach kids numerals but teach them quantity recognition through dots). They also have this 65 day math program which i don't know much about. i'll have to go and see what it is.

Linking memory -- this is a series of picture cards narrated with a very funny non-logical story. The kids can say the pic cards in sequence after a few repetitions.

Memory games -- they show the child a picture of a geometric drawing. Say a orange circle inside a grey rectangle. After looking at it for 1 sec, the child is given a similar drawing but without the colors. Child is supposed to color the correct color in the blanks.

ESP-- kids can sense what picture is behind the card!! This i've got to see to belive!  

Spatial recognition--- arranging a 3-D model with irregular blocks....something like tetris only in the 3D way.

Hope this helps....

Hi Anushyam,
   May I know where is the centre located? I did make some search regarding shicade program and found out that it is quite expensive, like RM1600 per month??? is it true?

Best regards,
Wai Leng

[teresa]

wow, very interesting!!! This right brain method is a bit different from Doman's and Tweedlewinks'. Keep us posted!

Teresa

[anushyam]

Yes indeed...It's very very expensive!! 

I'm forking out almost S$800 per month for four 1hr class/month!! My centre is in S'pore but believe they do have centres in M'sia.

Hi all,
From my reading through the net, Schicida (sorry, I might mispelled) method is likely the same as Doman. It makes full use of flashcards to develop "photographic memory" in baby's brain. Somehow, I really need to dig this out, but then I hardly find time to surf. Kindly share.

Hi I m new to this forum and first of all would like to thanks to all of you for sharing such a wonderful experience.But actually i m confused from your discussion that sample reading is enough for right brain development or i have to buy there dvd's.pls guide me in little more detail.and is it ok for my son coz his age is 2 yrs and he is very active and doesnt sit at 1 place.so he will be benefited if i purchase those dvd's from twidle.pls guide people

Both Shichida and Doman use right-brain methods, but they're not totally the same.  Shichida goes into a lot of other stuff other than reading and math, including memory powers (using pegging and linking methods), imagination development, and even ESP (ie., sixth sense).

In addition, see if these help:

Those of you using Little Reader, please also remember not to neglect the FLASH CARD MODE which is designed specifically for right-brain learning.  See this post for how to make full use of it:

As mentioned, right brain development is much more than reading.  I think Shichida courses (if you're lucky enough to be in a place which has them and can afford it) probably does it the best.  But the next best thing would be the Tweedlewink/Wink DVDs.  Of course, ahem(!), Little Reader (and later, Little Math, Little Musician, etc.) can also help a little...
