I\'m the editor of BrillBaby, a website dedicated to providing information about baby intelligence and bringing together parents who teach their babies. My first child, Naimah, was born on 22 September 2007. I\\\'m teaching her sign language (using Baby Signing Time! DVDs) and right-brain instant math (using Glenn Doman flash cards with dots). I\'ll be sharing my day-to-day experiences of teaching Nim and discussing other parenting issues on the blog.
