Enhancing Intellectual Development in Early Childhood
The first five years of life represent a profound window of opportunity—when the brain is at its most dynamic, responsive, and vulnerable. During this formative period, neural pathways are rapidly built and refined, laying the foundation for lifelong learning, emotional regulation, and relational capacity. This course explores the intricate processes of early brain development from birth to age five, emphasizing the powerful interplay between genetics, environment, and lived experience. Participants will examine how relationships, sensory input, stress, and culture shape the architecture of the developing brain. Key concepts include critical periods, co-regulation, executive function, and the role of play in cognitive and emotional growth. (3 hours)
