Doman is something that people can tell you how to do. Shichida is a little more difficult to explain because you would need to attend classes to understand the full program.

Here is the forum that we have devoted to math. On it you will find everything you need to know about the Doman math method. Just ask there if you have any questions.

Thanks nhockaday! I agree Shichida is more complicated.  But the classes are all full right now.  I have to wait half a year! Meanwhile, I will just have to use Doman method.

Are you wanting to use the Doman method or Shichida?

 
Also, any good link to download the pictures for making DIY cards for the Linking Memory ?  

Are you wanting to use the Doman method or Shichida?

Say, both? Or which do you recommend?

No I mean Doman, Shichida, etc. Maybe a better word would have been methods.

I just acquired the Organized Dot Cards.  Not sure how to use it. Does anyone here know?

Yes, the different programs say that they should be categorized.

I guess as much.  Now I need to have a make a lot more flash cards now! What do you mean by different program? You mean Linking Cards is one program and Photo Memory is another? How many programs are there?  TIA!

I found this about the energy ball:

The reason to have energy ball exercise is to calm the baby down and switch the brain to alpha wave. It' very useful exercise and my daughter likes to do this with me before i started my home practice at home.

Hi nhockaday! wow! It sounds like fun already. =) I am going to try this with baby later.

Question about the flash cards, do we have to categorise the cards into various subjects like Animals, Transportation, Fruits ...etc?  Right now, my cards are just about everything. 

Hi Sapna,

Let me go through my Shichida folder on the products that they sell. I'll try to get back to you by this weekend. Maybe I'll also drop by their counter this Sunday before my boy's lesson.

To tell you the truth, I have never bought anything from the Shichida, and most of the things that are done during lesson time is not sold to parents. I know alot of parents commented that the products are very expensive, though most of them still continue to buy from Shichida.

What I have done to help my boys is basically to make my own (flashcards, training program etc) and train them using the theory that I have learnt in the lesson.

Hi Winth! Thanks you for sharing about Shichida.  Is there a certain exercise you do before starting on the flash cards? I read something about energy ball. What is that?

For a start, how many flashcards should we be using? I read 1000 cards! That is amazing and quite a bit of work! My baby is only 6mth old.  Can you advise?

Thanks so much in advance.

Thanx to all.But u i wanna know which material from Shichida will help me and is different from Glenn Doman and Tweedle Wink and Wink programme.Which eucational material or any special educational toy is only available in S'pore,M'sia????Pls guide me or there is no need at all to buy???

Hi Sapna, I came across this thread and read about your brother coming to sg.  I am from singapore.  Shichida here doesn't sell their merchandise to the public.  You have to be a member to be able to purchase. A member as in your child is currently enrolled in the program.  Just to let you know.

Their classes are now completely full until April next year.  I was going ot register my baby for January. Now I have to wait till April.  He would be 11 month old by then.  It is quite crazy really. The program is so popular that these days if you want to join, you would have to wait half a year!

As such, I am looking for information on how I can start my baby at home instead.
