This was great, been searching for "how much do apple geniuses make 2013" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Ronny Geniusify Epiphany - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my friend got cool success with it.

Right after Kindergarten my son could not read at all! His teacher informed me that he will find it hard keeping up in First grade and he must start from the basics. Then we followed this reading guide *4ChildrenReading. Com* When he started 1st grade, he`s reading and the instructor is absolute amazed and raves about his improvement.?

they "need to learn MILLIONS of words" by the age of 3? They English language has about 170,000 works and almost 50,000 of those are obsolete!

[@wadhaalharbi7227]

Traditionalist actually it’s true what she’s saying search about this topic and you will understand

[@jamedave1323]

Last March, I stumbled upon this reading guideline *4ChildrenReading. Com* My son and I have already been really serious in performing reading lessons since then. I`m happy to report that he has been able to read several books on his own now. My boy feels very confident and is performing great in Kindergarten this year.?

Make them learn stuff at a young age

[@smartguygiyo]

There are not any 'millions' of words. Just in thousands. Or under a million..like half a million of English words. Most creative and intellectual people only need a vocabulary of 25000 to 35000 words.
Yes children need to learn millions of 'things', thousands of words, many thousands of phrases, complex emotions. No child has to learn millions of words. If a child has to learn millions of words it will take two lives to complete.

Here in the Philippines it's more easier to have a child rather than having a car

Shut the tv off

[@EricBrownBey]

There is educational on things on TV as there is none educational of things on TV, it's really just about controlling what is being watched.

[@Scot-t]

Nothing compared to what they learn just fiddling with something. Passive observation versus active participation can’t be compared when they’re brains are constantly growing and simply comprehending their environment. “Educational tv” doesn’t cut it for babies and toddlers like it does an adult. It’s hard work but do right by your kid and shut the tv off as much as possible.

Books and crayons and dancing are great indoors, too, and I’m with you on wanting to chillax with the tv. But it really does slow development, and finding a “happy middle” is all we can do. Best of luck brother and at the end of the day, just putting in the effort is more than a lot of dads do and your kids will see that someday.

I like to bake them at 400F but also air frying.
