By age six the left brain is dominant, but before age six there is a window of opportunity where the right brain is dominant. Shichida says that presenting large amounts of information at a fast pace to infants, toddlers and preschoolers stimulates the right brain and can activate photographic memory. Research shows that young children benefit from being shown flashcards such as phonograms, word cards and math dot cards if sessions are happy, relaxed and brief, and cards are presented quickly. Material can always be new and interesting with different pictures, words, facts or problems. The following are Books by Shichida available in English.
