In addition, he guides parents in helping their children to understand shapes, spaces and patterns. His ideas come to life with vivid videos (accessed with a QR code) of children discovering math concepts and parents acquiring an appreciation for the minds of their children. Ginsburg uses his extensive and rich experience as the Jacob Schiff Foundation Professor at Teacher’s College to help parents acquire insight into the cognitive development of their children.
The book is full of easy, respectful hints for helping children to articulate their thinking and develop their innate curiosity. Herb succeeds at helping parents and children find that math is fun!
