How are Young Brains Built?

The folks at the First Five Years Fund – who brought us the fabulous "Early Learning Matters" video – have another terrific animated video in their toolkit for advocates of high-quality early education. This time it’s "Brain Builders," narrated by Dr. Jack Shonkoff, director of the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University. In the more recent video, Shonkoff uses layman’s terms to explain the complex neurological and molecular interaction between children’s early experiences and the developing architecture of their young brains.
