Summary of Project

Clues to Kids Concepts  investigates the development of the very first concepts which children form in order to understand objects and their locations. These concepts form the building blocks of human understanding.

The session takes about one hour, with a settling in time, the experimental time, and time to ask questions afterwards. Parents sit with their baby during the session, which takes about 15 mins. 
Babies are shown various objects at different locations and we watch how they respond. The sessions are recorded on video for later in-depth analysis.

All babies  receive a prize and a certificate at the end, and parents are given some general nformation about childrens’ development.
