Abstract

Brain development has been a catch phrase in early childhood for a number of years. It is time now for parents, caregivers, and educators to have equal access to brain development information and ideas. Children must be provided with optimal environments in order to promote the best possible synapse connections. This capstone examines the critical periods of brain development and windows of opportunity this creates with a focus on educating parents, caregivers, and educators through an easily understandable teaching booklet.
