The Growing Brain Series: From Birth to 5 Years Old

The greatest rate of brain growth and development occurs during the first few years of life. This rapid development coincides with the time when a child is forming critical connections with the world around them. Because the brain is developing so quickly during these early years, experiences have a powerful influence on how the brain grows and functions.

Zero to Three’s The Growing Brain curriculum is designed to educate early childhood professionals about the critical stages of brain development from birth to five years of age. It explores brain structure, the connections within the brain, and the factors and experiences—particularly stress—that can negatively affect healthy brain development.

In this series, you can choose to explore the following topics with your certified Zero to Three Trainer:

Brain Basics
Factors Affecting Brain Growth and Development
Communication and Language Development
Cognitive and Executive Function
Social-Emotional Development
Understanding Behaviour
Everyday Play

Workshop Overview:

In the Social-Emotional session, we will explore what social development is and how social-emotional development unfolds during the first five years of life. Additionally, we will explore how relationships and attachment shape social-emotional development, the effects of stress on this development, and the process through which empathy emerges.

Key Objective:

By the end of this session, participants will:

Identify areas of the brain involved in social interactions and emotional reactions
Understand the role of relationships and attachment in social-emotional development
Understand the effects of stress on social-emotional development
