Then, this chapter went on to talk about how infants learn, remember, and conceptualize. There are different things that help children do these abilities. The 5 different things are conditioning, attention, memory, imitation, and concept formation. All of these skills do help children develop. The next thing this chapter talks about is measures of infant development. There are different ways to measure a child’s brain development. Two different examples of tests are Development Quotient, and Bayley’s scale of infant development. However, they determined that these tests do not correlate with infants IQ scores later in childhood. Another thing this chapter talks about is how language develops in infants. It starts with recognizing language sounds. This means that an infant will turn its head if they hear music. The next step in language development is babbling and other vocalizations. An example of this would be crying, and cooing. The third step is gestures, and this is when infants start to wave, nod, and point. Afterward, the next thing is first words. Often infant’s first words are mommy or daddy. Lastly, the last step of language development is two-word
