Brain Power

From neurons to brain wiring, Dr. David Walsh gives an easy-to-understand tour of children's and teens' brain development and the impact of experience on the "wiring' of their brains. Children are shaped by the stories they see and hear from parents, relatives, and teachers which pass on values, attitudes, and affect emotional and physical well-being. More than ever, media has become a powerful storyteller in children's lives and raising healthy kids in the media age involves making wise media choices.

Finally, a clear, concise, explanation of how important experience is in developing the brain of a young child. Positive experience fosters stronger connections between neurons. Stronger neuron connections help a child learn. You said what was needed in less than 6 minutes. I hope parents and educators will take heed and make a conscious effort to improve the value of their child's experiences. One thing I would add is "multi-sensory" stimulation fires neurons and makes connections stronger.
