It is never too early to start.

It is never too early to start. A variety of studies show that interaction with an infant influences brain development.

Studies by the National Scientific Council on the Developing Child show nurturing and stable relationships with caring adults are essential to healthy human development beginning at birth. From the prenatal period through the first years of life, the brain undergoes its most rapid development and early experiences determine whether its structure is sturdy or fragile. Spending time with your child creating these meaningful relationships will give them the skills they will need to face life's challenges.

The experts agree that healthy development depends on the quality and reliability of a young child's relationships with the important people in his or her life. These relationships not only include parents but teachers and extended family.
