Questions about Brain Development = Preguntas sobre el desarrollo del cerebro.
Southeastern Regional Vision for Education (SERVE), Tallahassee, FL.
Noting that new research shows that a baby's earliest years shape how he or she grows later in life, this brochure, in English- and Spanish-language versions, provides brief answers to some important questions parents may have about their baby's brain. The questions answered are: (1) "Why is brain development a popular subject lately?; (2) "What Have Scientists Discovered?" (3) "Exactly How Do Parents Affect Brain Development?" (4) "How Do Brains Form Connections?" (5) "How Does the Brain 'Know' Which Connections To Keep?" (6) "Does It Matter When Connections Are Formed?" (7) "What Does This [babies learn most when they are young] Mean to My Child and Me?" and (8) How Can I Help My Baby's Development When I'm at Work?" (HTH)
