The science of 'sleep teaching' is called hypnopaedia. According to a book called '12 steps to a better memory' " While it is popularly believed that a person can learn and remember while sleeping, in fact research has shown that learning does not take place while you are sound asleep...However, there is some evidence suggesting that you can learn while you are very drowsy, or even in a very light sleep. The material must be presented at just the right time; if you are not sleepy enough, the material will wake you up, and if you're too deeply asleep, the materials won't make an impression at all. In addition, complex material involving reasoning or understanding can't be learned while in a drowsy state."

Could somebody pls help me here with a question on introducing equations to a baby after u have reached 20 dot cards
1. Do u randomly show them addition equations or is there a rule u need to follow like.
2. How many equations do u need to show each day (and do we repeat in 3times a day)?
3. Isn't it impossible to cover all the possible combinations?

Well like u said after a while it gets impossible to flash both word and picture cards together. That's when LR comes useful....try the trial version and see how u like it. Like I said....we only show words to her and then pictures differently more like EK cards. LR shows the word and then the corresponding picture immediately. Its also impossible to show all the items we teach our babies in person..isn't it...only so much u can show them so that they can feel,touch,taste etc.I also don't flash 3 times a day...its more like twice or sometimes even once a day for us. I don't want her to get bored and dislike flash cards and so I make sure I don't flash too many times.....plus if u are using LR, ybcr etc....then I guess flashing once or twice is more than enough. We also take weekends off these days...and then on monday when I take the cards out she gets very excited. Again there are two schools of though here....there are people who think u should follow exactly what Doman says...that is flash 3 times a day and be very consistent.....but in a real life situation ...atleast for us its not possible. Well...regarding not understanding the meaning of a word..I guess they will eventually learn it ...we all did ..didn't we.
