Steve Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Hi all - Thought you might like to see this old cached page of the FSF two months after it was born. I stumbled across it after reminiscing with a friend. Carol (online as one of our 72 members!) is still an active member today. If you see this Carol, I think that entitles you to an FSF mug at the very least! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upsy Daisy Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 That was just after my second daughter was born too. She's 10 now! I'd forgotten all about Brain Gym. Do people still do it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 I think Nicola Call had a new release of her 'The Thinking Child' recently, which was a Brain Gym based text I think. Haven't heard much other Brain Gym stuff recently, although you're right, it was a Big Thing back then. Strange to think that was back before EYFS and the curriculum, SEFs, learning journals and all the stuff we take for granted now, isn't it? And before all my grey hair and wrinkles of course. Don't know if correlation equals causation in this case... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rea Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Yep, it was before all that stuff but is anything any different? Are children cleverer because of it all or are practitioners just more frazzled? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
