We are running two studies using non-invasive, eye-tracking technology to investigate how young children gauge emotional prosodic cues under different circumstances. If you are interested in having your child participate, please get in touch with us at [email protected]!
Are you looking for enriching opportunities for your child while they're out of school? Join our research study!

Pottery painting night for the Language and Cognitive Development Lab! 🎨👩🏽🎨 @susan_a_graham
Pottery painting is a great activity to do with your little ones (as long as they are old enough to keep the pottery in one piece 😂). Painting can help children develop their fine motor skills, coordination, emotional expression, and creativity.
