The Whole-Brain Child is a book that helps us understand the functioning and development of our children's brains, with 12 simple and practical strategies that we can use on a daily basis, to transform everyday situations into opportunities to cultivate the healthy development of the mind and nurture the process of connections and integrations that takes place in the brain in its early years.

In this episode, I go through each of the 12 strategies, with personal examples and how they have also helped me transform challenging moments into learning and teaching opportunities.
