A child may have one or several types of intelligence. You can
understand your child better by knowing what types of intelligence that
your child has. This will enable you to find out what kind of activities
are suitable for your child so as to help your child to learn better
and faster. I have done a research in the internet and have found that
there are about seven types of intelligence.
