Language used by mothers affects oxytocin levels of infants Infants whose mothers regularly use language to describe what their child is thinking or feeling, have higher levels of the hormone oxytocin, finds a new study led by UCL researchers.

It's #NationalPlayDay! 🛝 🤹
UCL PALS research has found that when mums talk about their baby’s thoughts & feelings during interaction such as play, it boosts oxytocin, the “bonding hormone", in infants.

Our Kurdish youth group gives young people who have been displaced somewhere to find connection and fun.

Play helps children process difficult emotions, build trust and feel more confident.

On #NationalPlayDay, we’re grateful for everything they teach us about resilience, creativity and joy.💜

Collage of white bindweed (Calystegia sepium) flowers. Left panel shows a 16th-century botanical illustration from ‘Grandes Heures d’Anne de Bretagne’ by Jean Bourdichon, depicting the twining plant with white trumpet-shaped flowers, heart-shaped leaves, a beetle, and a butterfly. Right panels feature close-up photographs of bindweed in bloom, highlighting the flower’s flaring trumpet shape, green sepals, and twisting stems set against lush green foliage.

Bindweed was once a favourite in childhood games. Squeeze the calyx, and the flower leaps off—cue the rhyme: “Granny, granny, pop out of bed!” In Dorset it was “fairy trumpets,” in Norfolk “devil’s guts” and in Shropshire “thunder flowers,” said to bring storms. #NationalPlayDay
