Many experts now believe that an average child's intelligence develops up to the ages of six to eight years as it does between the ages of 8—18 years. Early years in child development are crucial for his or her smartness and intelligence. A restricted or under-stimulated environment may restrict the intelligence of a child. Intelligence as a whole is a combination of book smartness and street (environment) smartness and is required for success in life. This book contains valuable insight for development of smartness and intelligence and also explains how to increase it. This is described in the form of a practical guide for parents, which will help children at home, school, and later in life in a positive way.
