How Children Develop, Canadian Edition
A World of Babies
Should babies sleep alone in cribs, or in bed with parents? Is talking to babies useful, or a waste of time? A World of Babies provides different answers to these and countless other childrearing questions, precisely because diverse communities around the world hold drastically different beliefs about parenting. While celebrating that diversity, the book also explores the challenges that poverty, globalization and violence pose for parents. Fully…

Infants’ Response to Pictures of Impossible Objects
Previous work has shown that 4‐month‐olds can discriminate between two‐dimensional (2D) depictions of structurally possible and impossible objects [S. M. Shuwairi (2009), Journal of Experimental Child Psychology , 104, 115; S. M. Shuwairi, M. K. Albert, & S. P. Johnson (2007), Psychological Science , 18, 303]. Here, we asked whether evidence of discrimination of possible and impossible pictures would also be revealed in infants’ patterns of reach…
When Getting Something Good is Bad
Fairness is central to morality. Previous research has shown that children begin to understand fairness between the ages of four and six, depending on the context and method used. Within distributive contexts, there is little clear evidence that children have a concept of fairness before the age of five. This research, however, has mostly examined children's explicit verbal responses to questions about unequal distributions—a method that often un…
Babies and Baby Media
In the last decade, exposure to screen media has extended to ever earlier ages, as video products designed and marketed specifically for infants have proliferated and generated extraordinary sales. Parents purchase these products for multiple reasons, including the expectation that their infants will learn from them. We first summarize some of the data documenting this new phenomenon and then raise the question of what empirical research using vi…
The Effect of Repetition on Infants' Imitation From Picture Books Varying in Iconicity
Although picture‐book reading is commonplace during infancy, little is known about the impact of this activity on learning. A previous study showed that 18‐ and 24‐month‐olds imitated a novel action sequence presented in a book that was illustrated with realistic color photos, whereas they failed to imitate from books illustrated with less realistic drawings. In the research reported here, we hypothesized that increasing infants' exposure to a pi…
Planes, trains, automobiles--and tea sets
Some normally developing young children show an intense, passionate interest in a particular category of objects or activities. The present article documents the existence of extremely intense interests that emerge very early in life and establishes some of the basic parameters of the phenomenon. Surveys and interviews with 177 parents revealed that nearly one third of young children have extremely intense interests. The nature of these intense i…
Get the picture? The effects of iconicity on toddlers' reenactment from picture books
What do toddlers learn from everyday picture-book reading interactions? To date, there has been scant research exploring this question. In this study, the authors adapted a standard imitation procedure to examine 18- to 30-month-olds' ability to learn how to reenact a novel action sequence from a picture book. The results provide evidence that toddlers can imitate specific target actions on novel real-world objects on the basis of a picture-book …
Infants' Manual Exploration of Pictorial Objects Varying in Realism
In previous research, we established that 9‐month‐old infants manually investigate pictured objects by hitting, rubbing, and grasping as if to pluck them off the page. This behavior suggests that infants do not understand the 2‐dimensional nature of pictures. Although they can perceive depth cues and distinguish pictures from objects, they do not appreciate the significance of these cues; that is, they do not realize how depicted objects differ f…
A World of Babies
Are babies divine, or do they have the devil in them? Should parents talk to their infants, or is it a waste of time? Answers to questions about the nature and nurture of infants appear in this book as advice to parents in seven world societies. Imagine what Dr Spock might have written if he were a healer from Bali ... or an Aboriginal grandmother from the Australian desert ... or a diviner from a rural village in West Africa. As the seven childc…

Naturalistic studies of memory for object location in very young children
This chapter describes research on very young children's memory for location that was aimed at accurately assessing the memorial competence of young children
