  • The Follow-Up: The Science Behind Why Your Child Copies You

    The Follow-Up: The Science Behind Why Your Child Copies You
    Jul 7 2025
    You’ve probably seen it—your toddler pretending to cook after watching you in the kitchen, or mimicking your sighs after a long day. It’s not just cute—it’s neuroscience. In this powerful follow-up episode, Dr. Mona sits down with educator Chris Lake to unpack mirror neurons, the brain’s fascinating mechanism for learning through observation. Together, they explore how these neurons shape everything from crawling and speech to empathy and emotional regulation—and how everyday moments of modeling can support your child’s development more than any app ever could. Whether you’re wondering how screen time affects speech, why your toddler copies your every move, or how to introduce new toys and skills more effectively, this conversation offers both science and simple strategies for parents to put into practice. What You’ll Learn: The surprising research behind mirror neurons and observational learning Why our kids learn best through watching (not just being told) How mouth-gazing helps with speech development—and why screens fall short Why modeling behaviors like sharing and play matters more than we think The link between demonstration, confidence, and child mastery The truth about screen time’s impact on social and language skills Our podcasts are also now on YouTube.

  • The Follow-Up: What Makes ISR Lessons So Different?

    The Follow-Up: What Makes ISR Lessons So Different?
    Jun 30 2025
    What’s the real difference between ISR (Infant Swimming Resource) and traditional swim lessons and is one really safer? In this episode, I sit down with a certified ISR instructor to break down what ISR actually is, how it works, and why it’s not the “throw-your-baby-in-the-pool” method people assume it is. With drowning being the leading cause of accidental death in kids ages 1–4, this conversation is a must-listen for any parent near water. We cover: The history and science behind ISR How ISR teaches self-rescue and survival skills How it compares to traditional swim classes (including one-on-one lessons) Why lessons are just 10 minutes a day and why that works Common misconceptions: trauma, tears, and floating myths What to look for in a swim instructor When babies and toddlers can safely start ISR Whether you’re a pool owner, beach-goer, or just a parent exploring water safety, this episode will help you make informed decisions and feel more confident in protecting your child around water.
