The child’s mother said that her daughter knows the color of things put inside a ceramic bowl and can sit in one room and know the color of the wall in another room.
The mother, Ms. Nguyen Thi Xuan, said her daughter’s special skills were exposed after the child attended a training course entitled “brain development”, which was offered for the first time in Hanoi this summer. At the class, kids are taught how to use their brain energy to do special things.
Xuan said the class is for kids from 6 to 15 years old and her daughter was considered to have special talent.
The woman said there were four levels of training and her child is now at level one.
The higher level the people reach, the more they can do complicated things, such as moving objects by brain waves, looking through a wall, cycling on the road blindfolded,the woman said.
Xuan said that teachers at the training center where her daughter was being trained explained that as the brain energy emits light, people can distinguish colors blindfolded.
According to themother, the cost was VND14 million (nearly US$700).
The mother said she hoped that her daughter would be more intelligent after the course.
