Here is a good reason for all you parents to starting learning Sanskrit:

"Scientific research has shown that during the reading or recitation of Sanskrit the functioning of the brain becomes highly orderly and coherent, enhancing the overall development of the student, the basis of effective and enjoyable learning. Pronouncing the sounds of the Vedic Literature enlivens balance and integration in the mind and body of the students."

I've decided to look for for a sanskrit correspondence course - not only appreciate the ancient wisdom but also help my kid pick up the strings.

"children may begin storing the sounds and meanings of words while they are infants, and suddenly they are able to connect the words with meanings."

Isn't this incentive enough to being early to reap the benefits... although they become visible 18 months and later...

A good article- it will help all parents work with more conviction that their efforts will be all worth , in the end.
