Lillunia - Baby Brain Development

"As few as twenty years ago scientists believed that the genes we were born with wholly determined the structure of our brains. The facts recently discovered by neurologists and psychologists, however, prove that how children develop, learn, and grow depends on the critical and continual interplay between nature (or genetic endowment) and nurture (the surroundings, care, stimulation, and teachings received); ... both of these influences are crucial." (US Dept of Education)

Studies have shown that the arts can awaken children's senses and make them more aware of the surrounding world with which they interact.
Exposing children to art from birth nurtures the intellectual process. This has been studied widely with respect to disadvantaged children and the benefits exposure to the arts has on their intellectual and emotional development. Such art exposure helps all children's social and cognitive advancement.
