Mirror Neurons: Why They're Important in Child Development

Listen Later

Mirror neurons are one of the keys to child development. Our babies and kids are watching and observing us and how we interact with them, others, and ourselves. On this episode, I welcome Chris Lake, a young childhood development expert and educator, and founder of Behavior Booster, to discuss:


  • The science behind mirror neurons
  • How we as parents can use mirror neurons to our benefit in child development and parenting
  • Why modeling for our kids is so important


    • Connect with Chris on Instagram @behaviorbooster.
