Hi MH,
My baby does look at the flashcard quite attentively for 80% of the time. She definately does not understand what I'm doing with her, but it's alright, just do the flascard like a on-going game with her.
There a quite a few ways to get the GD flashcards. For original, you can only get in Singapore from GD Baby. Some mummies print their own together under a BP. Some buy second hand from sellers in this forum.
Hi Sharon,
There are around 6 books by GD :
1. How Smart Is Your Baby (Only valid for baby till 1 year old)
2. How to teach your baby math. (Reservation queue in library is very long)
3. How to teach your baby to read.
4. How to give your baby encyclopedic knowledge. (i may do this program only after i complete the Eng & Chinese)
5. How to teach your baby to be physically superb. From Birth to Age six. (Quite technical and focus really mainly on physcial stimulation for babies)
6. How to multiply your baby's intelligence. (An overall discussion on Math, to read and encyclopedic knowledge, can borrow from library )
Other than the GD threads which you can read in this forum, another website you can visit is

Hi Jesline,
Since you have already bought the cards, do start the program earlier, especially since it is the Maths programme which according to GD Baby (Lawrence), the earlier you start, the more the baby will enjoy. I'm also a FTWM, so I only have time to flash in the morning. You can adjust the programe according to your schedule. Like for me, instead of flashing 5 sets for 3 sessions daily, I can only flash 2 sets.
Hi Butter,
Bedtime story is a very good habit to have, it enhance the bonding as well as a signal to tell the baby that it is sleeping time. You may want to try the 'Hi' & Bye' rhyme I suggest in my post earlier. It's the language stimulation exercise recommended by GD from the book, 'How Smart Is Your Baby'.
Ok, pardon me for being a bit long winded here. You may wish to PM me if you like to know more (don't want this thread to end up with too many GD stuff), I can only share what I can from my ongoing experience.
Just gave baby carrot today, she looks like she don't really like. Anyway, will still continue to give for another 2 days.
