Wake Up, Parents!

I heard these two facts today that I would LOVE to have all parent hear. I'll refrain from commentating on them and let these two facts speak for themselves:

  • Research has shown that there is zero brain activity occurring when children are watching TV.
  • Language development research has show it takes 85 times for a child to hear/work with a word before it becomes engrained in their vocabulary.
