This is a six-part documentary series on the first 12 months of babies' mental and physical development, and glimpses into ongoing research at universities around the globe into the many aspects of babies' growth.
Its basic thesis is that much of what we used to think about babies as being "tabula rasa" or blank slates is simply not true. Instead, they arrive with seemingly miraculous stores of built-in knowledge and skills, which they then actualize through their many strange and wonderful behaviors in the first year of life, which are demonstrated by babies in families from different places around the world. Perfect for new parents (and grandparents)! Recommended.
