Brain Architecture Simulation: Building Foundations for Early Development

Join us for a dynamic and interactive Brain Architecture Simulation that brings to life the powerful role experiences play in shaping early brain development. In this engaging hands-on session, participants will collaborate to build a physical model of the brain, simulating how early experiences—both positive and negative—impact its structure.

Through this simulation, you will:

• Gain deeper insights into the connection between early childhood experiences and lifelong outcomes.
• Explore how stress, relationships, and support systems influence brain architecture.
• Reflect on ways to foster environments that support healthy brain development in young children.

Whether you're an educator, caregiver, or community leader, this workshop will enhance your understanding of the science behind brain development and provide practical insights to inform your work with children and families.

Let’s build stronger futures by learning how to support healthier brain development from the very beginning!
