It was one that was effective, because it made an impression!!
It got attention!
Every newborn baby needs this to also make a dramatic impression!!
This is a brain with experiences ....
this is a brain without!!!
In looking at the brain scans of these two three year old brains, you can see the dramatic difference in size! One child has had "normal" experiences, the other child experienced extreme neglect.
When children are provided with repeated experiences of good nutrition, nurturing touch, responsive interactions, direct language, opportunities to play and explore, time outdoors, predictability and LOVE ..... the brain physically grows in a healthy way. It is THAT simple......
................... ANY QUESTIONS????

Love it!!! Petra Huppi has similar pictures of a healthy premature infant's brain at term vs. a term infant at term. I love this new era of neuroscience!
