I'm not sure if the education level of the parent matters as much as the interacting itself - some time with the child one-to-one each day. As a working mom, I'm aware that the time to do this is sometimes limited, but I also know there's no toy or computer game or tv show (Einstein included) that can substitute.

I think it's a combo. You can be there, but not be directly interacting, and then of course, you need the direct interaction too.
I know as a SAHM, I would go nuts (and my kids would too) if I was constantly trying to directly interact.

In no way do I think moms should be with their kids face-to-face non-stop! Sorry if my post read that way.
What I was thinking of was homes where the kid has great toys, but families spend little or no time on the floor playing.
