The early development
of mobility in newborns is a vital part of their future ability
to learn and grow to full potential. We may be wasting our children's
most important years by preventing them from physically exploring
their world and maximizing their mobility development when they
are young--the time that it is easiest for them to do so.
In How To Teach Your Baby To Be Physically
Superb, Glenn Doman--founder of The Institutes for the Achievement
of Human Potential--along with Douglas Doman and Bruce Hagy guide
you in maximizing your child's physical capabilities. They clearly
explain each stage of mobility and show how to create an environment
that will help your baby more easily achieve that stage. Full-color
charts, photographs, illustrations, and detailed yet easy-to-follow
instructions are included to help you in creating an effective home
program.
This inspiring book shows how the team of mother,
father, and baby can explore and discover together the joys of human
mobility. From learning the simple but vital stage of crawling to
the beginnings of the sophisticated skills of the gymnast, this
athletic team is a baby's most important one.
Glenn
Doman received his degree in physical therapy from the University
of Pennsylvania in 1940. From that point on, he began pioneering
the field of child brain development. In 1955, he founded The Institutes
for the Achievement of Human Potential in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
By the early 1960s, The Institutes' world-renowned work with brain-injured
children had led to vital discoveries regarding the growth and development
of well children. The author has lived with, studied, and worked
with children in more than one hundred nations, ranging from the
most civilized to the most primitive. Doman is also the international
best-selling author of six books, all part of the Gentle Revolution
Series, including How To Teach Your Baby To Read, How To Give
Your Baby Encyclopedic Knowledge, and How To Multiply Your
Baby's Intelligence.
Douglas
Doman is Vice President of The Institutes and Glenn's son.
His early years working at The Institutes were spent creating the
School for Human Development for brain-injured young adults. He
worked closely with Bruce Hagy to create the world's first Human
Development Course, a circuit using physical activities that promote
neurological organization and development.
Bruce
Hagy is the former director of The Institutes for the Achievement
of Physical Excellence. He joined The Institutes' staff in 1974
and his background in health and physical education quickly led
him to become involved with the physical challenges posed by both
well and hurt children.
