The book It’s Too Late After Three upended the traditional idea of what age children develop cognitive skills – the ability to learn. The author of the book argues that children under three years of age have tremendous potential to learn how to learn. The author also argues that in order to enable children’s potential to be fully realized, parents must surround children, in addition to unconditional love, with an appropriate environment in which children must accumulate the first and greatest life experience.
According to Masaru Ibuko, the ideal combination of time – up to three years – and the environment – in the form of a game – forms a comprehensive and harmonious personality.
The author of the book answers parents’ questions “when?”, “how?” and why?” children need to be occupied from birth in such a way that they grow up successful and happy.
