    So is it toxic?

    Or is it safe to drink the bath water.

    Eds - This title is misleading.

    My eikaiwa former employer started classes aimed at 6 month year olds.

    I only had to do one test lesson - and it was insane.

    I think when parents are of the mindset that their children should be being educated and learning like high school kids - that's totally stupid.

    But if they are aware that it's more sponge like, and that fun and skill development should be emphasised over raw knowledge acquisition, then it can't be that bad.

    I had 3 year olds who showed better learning ability than some of my 9 year olds.

    Re: kirakira - I just remembered we did have prenatal classes too. You weren't really teaching the foetus - we just gave the mum some training in basic lullabyes and vocab they can go through with their newborns. It's basically initiating teh parent into the eikaiwa cult. BWAHAHAHAHA...
