We parents all know that the intelligence or ability to learn of a child comes from three elements: gene, education and nutrition.

It is obvious that we can not influence genetic factors, and all parents are focusing on nutrition even before the child is born. However, not many parents know that the first three years of a baby is considered the "golden opportunity" to activate and unlock the intellectual potential of all children.

The research shows that in every second, tens of thousands of neuronal connections are formed. According to Simmons & Sheehan (1997), children whose neural circuits are not stimulated before kindergarten are never going to be what they could have been. This is because after the age of three, the flexibility and sensitivity of the brain decreases, so then the efficiency of education will not be as desired. A child's potential is determined in the early years - from the first moments of life to countless hours spent in day care. These are the years when we create the promise of a child's future. So in the first years of life, parents are the first and most importantly teachers to the child’s brain.

Accompanying parents in the early stage of life, Saigon Academy Pre-school System, a pioneer in early education in Ho Chi Minh City, is the second warming home to your baby: the school coordinates closely with Parents in early childhood education methods to activate logical thinking, opening up intellectual potentials of young brains with the aim to build up an all-rounded development of comprehensive language, intellectual, thinking, physical, character, life skills and potential talents.

For early childhood education from 0 years old, the baby is not forced to learn early but developed naturally by "learning through games, learning through playing". With children under 3 years of age, when their brain can do shooting and memorize best, our school implies the Multi-sensory method developed by Dr. Robert C. Titzer - an expert in early childhool education, using flash cards and picture cards. At the stage before 3 years of age, most of the neural connections in the brain is active and formed in the areas of five senses. If those senses such as hearing, sight, touch, taste, smell, including moving are stimulated properly, the child will develop the best available intellectual potential. For children over 3 years old, when he has his own interests and choices, the learning method is project-based approach. The children is learning all the skills, knowledge, concepts and developing the attitudes, feelings and good behaviors through self-experience and interacts with the activities relating to the specific project.

At Saigon Academy Pre-school, with limited number of children per class (12-16 kids / nursery classes), spacious classrooms, airy and safe environment, outdoor and indoor playground with educational tools and toys, children's meals are provided by The Caterers, Parents will be more satisfied and assured when your baby will be happy in her second home. Let’s invest for the child in this "golden opportunity"! You can have many regrets in your childhood, but you can not give your child a childhood filled with regret. You may not be a genius, but you can absolutely become a parent or a teacher of a genius!
