Welcome to Your Child's Brain: How the Mind Grows From Birth to University

by Sandra Aamodt & Sam Wang - £9.99  Oneworld Publications (2012)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781851689125 | ISBN 10: 1851689125

Neuroscientists Aamodt and Wang illuminate how children's brains grow – and how they can be nurtured, scientifically, to reach their full potential.
 
The authors investigate common child-rearing wisdom, exposing bad "brain training" products and the ways parents most influence a child's personality. They explain why playing outside improves vision, why teenagers stay up late, and why learning a second language increases empathy. And they share amusing experiments that will let every parent watch a child's grey matter at work.
 
Filled with myth-busting facts and clever advice, this is an indispensable, entertaining guide to your child's brain.
