SUMMARY:Tiny minds\, big learning: What babies can do from birth
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an inspiring training event for Early Years practitioners and parents \n\nRecent neuroscience research reveals something remarkable: infants as young as two months old can categorise visual information\, such as recognising the difference between animals and inanimate objects. This new understanding challenges long‑standing theories\, including Piaget’s\, which suggest that higher-level thinking develops much later. \nFor parents and early years practitioners\, these findings open up exciting questions: \n\nHow capable are babies\, really\, when it comes to early thinking?\nHow do environments\, interactions\, and resources nurture these early cognitive skills?\nAre we underestimating what babies can do in our current baby room practice?\n\nWhat this event offers \nJoin us for a dynamic training session that brings cutting-edge neuroscience to life. You’ll discover why babies should be seen as active learners from birth\,  and explore practical\, easy-to-apply strategies to support early thinking and learning every day. \nBy connecting the latest research with effective early years practice\, this session will help you create more respectful\, responsive\, and developmentally attuned environments for the very youngest children. \nBy the end of the session\, you will be able to: \n\nUnderstand how cognitive development begins far earlier than previously assumed\nApply new insights to enhance your baby room environments\, planning\, and interactions\nReflect on and evaluate your current practice through the lens of the newest neuroscientific evidence.\n\n\nBook Your Place\n\nDelegate Rate\n£25\nBook Now\nDNCG Staff\n£25\nSubmit an SD1 Form to apply for funding
