Babies learn a lot in their first year. But their behaviour doesn’t always tell the full story If a baby doesn’t show a clear response at a particular age, it does not necessarily mean they have stopped learning or missed an important step.

Babies learn a lot in their first year, but not in a straight line. Our new study shows that babies can learn patterns in speech as early as 4 months old. But across development, how they show that learning changes.

Kids, Screens, and Smartphones: Setting Limits Without Guilt (Backed by Science) The scene I see every day I’m in the exam room. A three-year-old walks in with his dad. He’s curious, moving around, looking at everything. Before I can say “Hi”, dad reaches into his pocket, pulls out a smartphone, and puts it in the child’s hand. Silence. Eyes glued to the screen. When I try to talk to the child, he barely looks up: the phone has won the battle for his attention.

Pantallas y peques: menos no es castigo, es desarrollo.
Screens & little ones: less isn’t punishment—it’s brain-building.

Young children usually understand more words than they can say: a “comprehension–production gap”.

In a new study, we found that children with Williams syndrome (WS) have a unique profile: their gap is significantly reduced compared to other groups. 🧵 #LanguageDevelopment #WilliamsSyndrome #devpsyc
