On the Move: Why Movement is Critical for Cognition

Description

Learn what happens to the brain when infants, toddlers and two’s do not get the involvement necessary for the brain to retain information. Participants will learn to differentiate between age appropriate and problematic activity levels, as well as, understand and identify ADD/ADHD in young children. Participants will learn how to recognize atypical motor patterns and how these physical impairments can inhibit cognition. This workshop will explore how movement can be utilized to maximize brain connections and whole brain functioning in young children from birth to age three.
