A fascinating look at what new brain science is revealing about early learning.
This KSPS documentary explores the fascinating science behind brain development and early learning. The brain develops most rapidly in the first three years of life, and now with new imaging technology scientists can actually watch the brain of a young child in action: how it grows, acts and reacts. What they're learning is changing the way we view Early Learning.
