Brain Rules for Baby: How to Raise a Smart and Happy Child from Zero to Five

Author(s): John Medina

Babies

Why are some babies easy and others fussy - and how to get an easy one? What's the single most important thing a parent can do during pregnancy? What does watching TV do to a baby's brain? John Medina shares what the latest science says about how to raise smart and happy children. Brain Rules for Baby bridges the gap between what scientists know and what parents practice. He unravels how the brain develops from the womb through the early years. What one does right now - before pregnancy, during pregnancy, and through the first five years - will affect a child for the rest of their lives.
