I am not sure where you are going with this question.  The optimal way to achieve similar results would be to get children in Early Years Education would it not?  I don't know about other countries, but here in the UK there is free Early Years Education available in registered and approved pre-schools for 15 hours per week each child soon to be raised to 30 hours per week

I agree with @Chris. There's a lot of different interventions that happen at a societal level rather than a personal level. Does your question intend to ignore these? If yes, why?

@Seanny123 [Early adoption](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_adopter) might be one reason, nothing to do with early education though. The benefits early adopters get surpass those of waiting for everybody to catch up IMHO.

Further to my previous comment in June, there are unpublished reports unavailable to the public as they contain personal information I have seen as a volunteer within a pre-school, which shows the benefits of early years education.  These reports cover early adopted and non-adopted children

@Chris I think we are both rooting for the same thing, the difference is that I don't have access to those reports you mentioned, nor to those pre-school programs.

# How to teach parents to apply early childhood interventions to improve cognitive outcomes in children?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2013-01-09)

I've watched the ["My Brilliant Brain: Born Genius"](http://natgeotv.com/asia/my-brilliant-brain/about) documentary where they refer to the [Abecedarian Project](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abecedarian_Early_Intervention_Project), in that investigation, a group of children that were exposed to early childhood education observed long-term benefits, such as higher scores in intelligence tests than those children that weren't exposed to early education.

Are there any peer-reviewed or follow-up studies on the optimal ways to teach new parents on how to obtain similar results?
