Will Staso: 2 books

This book provides an overview of how the earliest forms of intelligence are affected both by nature and nurture. Specific suggestions are offered for assisting infants through 7 months of age to maximize their cognitive development based on infant research. While the book was written in 1999, the ideas continue to be a valuable source of information to parents and other caregivers.

This book provides researched based ideas for parents who want to facilitate the adaptive and cognitive development of their toddler age children. The book examines the foundations of learned concepts, facts, "how-to" knowledge, cause-effect reasoning, communicative competence, and memory skills.
