Synopsis
"Demonstrating how and why children need to be better, brighter thinkers, this guide for parents shows them how to foster curiosity and awareness and improve their children's concentration, listening, problem solving, and decision making skills. The techniques discussed are based on five thinking keys and tools, including sorting, organizing, and grouping ideas; differentiating facts from assumptions; and looking at issues from several points of view. Both parents and teachers are encouraged to see how discussing ideas with children can be an enjoyable and creative activity for everyone."

Review
"'The most important thing parents can do for their children is to encourage them to think. Children really enjoy thinking and this book builds on that enjoyment. To have confidence in one's own thinking is the foundation for a happy and successful life.' - Edward de Bono"
