iHV is delighted to be working on a new project, funded and supported by @KindredSquared . The project aims to further equip health visiting teams in promoting babies’ #BrainDevelopment in their conversations with parents and carers.

The @SEENProgramme contains lesson plans, teacher pack, worksheets and quizzes to teach critical content to young people.
And they love it! 91% of children in our pilot thought this should be taught in schools.

Why does child brain development matter?
Building a sturdy foundation in the earliest years provides a good base for a lifetime of good mental function and better overall health

90% of your child's brain growth happens before the age of 5 🧠
This recent study shows that by age 3, children can understand others’ intentions using active mirror neurons. What is a mirror neuron? Read more here: kinsq.org/3LrO5s7@SEENProgramme@NeuroscienceNew
"If an adult’s responses to a child are unreliable, inappropriate, or simply absent, the developing architecture of the brain may be disrupted, & subsequent physical, mental, & emotional health may be impaired."
@HarvardCenter@SEENProgramme
Serve & return interactions can start in a child's earliest moments! This kind of responsive, back-and-forth interaction between a child and caregiver helps shape the architecture of a child’s brain & supports healthy development.

If you're interested in child brain development and the theory of love and nurture - there is a @kinderly webinar next week (19 June) "Love and Nurture in the Early Years"

Have you ever thought you baby was trying to speak to you? 👶
A recent study at @UofAlabama, published in @PLOS, suggests that baby squeals & growls could be an attempt to practise the vocal control necessary for speech.

Join us next Thursday 23rd May 🗓️ at the @CSTvoice Early Years Summit in #Birmingham! Stop by our stall to learn more about the @SEENProgramme where you can sign up to access the free KS2 and KS3 resources. Don't miss this opportunity to connect with us! kinsq.org/4akNlyS
Did you know 90% of your brain development happens in the first 5 years of life? The Australian government is using neuroscience to shape #EarlyYears policy. A thought-provoking approach, don't you think? Perhaps the UK should take note 👀

A new study aims to examine the role of napping in brain development in babies. The is a longitudinal study will be run by @UMassAmherst and is funded by @NIH.
Watch this space 👀 The findings could be very interesting!

Thanks for sharing our resources @jillberry102 Free and adaptable assembly and lesson resources for primary and secondary schools. I'm always happy to speak to schools and talk them through the programme.
Our first few years can determine the rest of our lives. Getting those early years (EY) right can help avoid harm later in life. @SEENProgramme teaches secondary pupils the importance of the EY and what we can all do to support healthy development

ASE Green Tick Awarded ✅ - @KindredSquared and University of Oxford's Secondary Education around Early Neurodevelopment (@SEENProgramme) - aims to highlight the importance of early brain development within the curriculum... Find out more: ow.ly/oqT250JRzbo#SciEd
And this is why we @SEENProgramme think there should be a universal education about the importance of the early years. Just to cover the basics… improve knowledge for future generations of parents, teachers, police, communities… #ExperiencesMatter
The rapid brain development that occurs during #earlychildhood provides the foundations for every child’s future development. Our new case study explores how the next generation of parents can be engaged on this through @KindredSquared’s SEEN Programme.
