Lelask- yep, for better or worse, the whole shebang! Although I am quite certain my two-year-old will still show me up learning wise, I am going to give it a go…worst case, it gets put on a shelf and resurrected when A is older! Although I have much higher hopes…
I would like to recommend both Tweedlewink and Wink Overview Courses. They are absolutely fantastic. I am so amazed that the Teachers from Right Brain Kids are sharing all their knowledge and experience so freely. Reading Pamela’s Hickein book is a great introduction to both Tweedlewink and Wink teaching programs.
I took Tweedlewink course when my son was 8 months. I have been using Tweedlewink DVDs and homeschooling using Righ Brain Kids Program for almost 4 years. I am so grateful for this experience. My second child was thought prenataly and along with her brother since she was born. I am amazed how the gentle stimulation of the Tweedlewink Programm is helping in the whole brain development of both my children… it would take a very long time to describe all the benefits… let me just say that at the age of two, given the variety of knowledge, showed a particular interest in music and musical instruments – at the age of four he plays violin and has perfect pitch; he loves to learn, read and discover the world… my daughter is now 2.5, she loves to learn languages and is a very quick learner; she is in love with dance and gymnastics.
I can see how Right Brain Stimulation had an amazing impact on myself over the years. I have started Wink Course and I am going to introduce it to my children when they are ready.
The most important think – the Right Brain Kids teachers, trainers, anybody I was in touch with, are very very helpful. You can always ask them for help and advice.
With watching TW DVDs – always follow your child. We used to watch it once a day four days – now we watch one lesson once a day for one or two days, and it is enough.
I hope it will be of some help to you. All the best!
It is about time I should read deeply the Wink book. I want to use tweedlewink and wink at preschool with 3y olds and older. My main problem is to get relaxed. I can not stop my thoughts!
Ola, I would like to hear more about the RB activities you do at home with your children. It was so inspiring to read your post.
Keri, did you have a chance to try wink with Alex? I have tried but A. is not ready yet.
Oh , I have to say that I used wink dvds before studying for my exams and I swear it worked. My concentration was much better. I passed with A,A,A
We did Tweedlewink when my son was little. He is 5 now and we started on Wink. I was shocked! The memory train cards have a story that is very random, like “A chicken jumped over a house which smelled like a strawberry but was really a flower…” I can’t believe how quickly my son can remember. First I showed him 5 cards and that was easy so I started showing him 20 new cards at a time and yes, he can remember them all! After two days, and about 4 short sessions, he is up to 100 cards. He never likes to be tested so he reads them silently & I show him the blank cards. The only way I know he is actually doing it is because if he gets stuck he will ask what is after “the plane” and I will find the plane and help him remember the next one. I can still only remember the first line (not that I have been trying hard) so I am amazed that he can do this.
My only complaint is that I didn’t want the overview course. I get this right brain stuff and don’t want to go through a huge course. But, there are no instructions with some things. We got some zoo cards and some tiles and squares and I have no clue how to use them because the only instructions are “start here.” I would think they would at least explain the activity.
Cassidy the square tiles are for photographic memory practice. Start with the smallest pattern card and make a simple pattern using the tiles. Allow your child to see the tile pattern for 1-3 seconds them have then re create the same pattern. As they get better at it incease the complexity of the patterns or increase the number of tiles. I reckon prhotographic memory would have to be one of the more useful skills in wink. Well worth the effort.
The zoo cards I will look up for you, I am pretty sure they are used in the same way as the tiles, but you start with 3 cards and have your child recall the cards. Then increase the number of cards. I didn’t do the course but I must have read this information somewhere…
Thanks!
They could be used for photoeyeplay art exercise when photoeyeplay gets “boring” especially for children who can ´t sit still.

Hi Agnesdecham, I would like to buy Twindle Wink DVDs, could you please give me the coupon code for discount of 15% at rightbrainshop. Thank you very much!
I’m interested in the coupon code as well. We have done the TeedleWink DVDs however since my child is getting older, we are ready to move on with Wink. Does the code work for Wink as well? Thanks!
Dear Agnesdecham, hope it is not too late to ask for a coupon code. I would love to get the whole package of tweedlewink and/or wink from Right Brain. I am new to BK and bought LMs a couple of weeks ago. Now my 4.5 year old is going to take Lesson 20 (LMs) and he loves it! This makes me think I should get in more computer programs. I have been reading posts on the forum and was sad to find the RB coupon was gone. The RB products are expensive! I am debating if I should wait for a coupon to lower the total expense or go ahead and make the purchase before my son is too old for Tweedlewink. Please let me know if you still have a coupon. Thanks a lot!
I have the entire WINK program in excellent condition for sell. The cost is $125 (shipping included). Please let me know if anyone is interested. My email address is jillapatel@gmail.com if their are any inquiries or requests for pictures.
