that a game of peekaboo could change the world?

He has to take Ari away now to get ready for our experiment.

My talk today is about some powerful things you grownups can do.

that shape us as children and the adults we become.

Because my parents and people around me did them early and often.

Some of my friends, some kids at my school and many around the world.

And I would really like to help change that.

we now know just how important the first five years are

Ari started learning long before he was even born,

He was always hungry and he pooped a lot.

Now he laughs and giggles and makes funny noises.

But those are just the changes we hear and see.

The blue bag is a rough size and weight of a healthy baby's brain at birth.

The red one is a baby's brain after the first year.

And by my age, it's almost 90 percent the volume of an adult brain.

Our brains develop faster in our early years

It can create up to one million neural connections every second.

Our healthy development depends on these top five things,

All of this helps our brains and us reach our full potential.

So what's something you can do that can really make a difference?

That's just a grown-up way of saying connect, talk and play with us.

Molly Wright: Copycat games build imagination and empathy.

Naming games build vocabulary and attention.

MW: And games like peekabo -- yep, peekaboo --

MW: Each time you talk to us, play with us, make us laugh,

it not only builds and strengthens our relationships and mental health,

it actually teaches us some of the most important life skills,

to one day maybe even starting a family of our own.

the seven-year-old up here talking about brain science.

OK, now let's see what happens when the connection is taken away.

So now he's trying to get his dad's attention again.

He's reaching out like, “That was fun, why have you stopped?”

I know it's important for adults to use their devices sometimes,

but kids are hardwired to seek out meaningful connections,

not receiving them causes confusion and stress.

MW: Now what if our whole childhood was like that last 30 seconds?

How hard it would be for a child to feel calm.

Ari only reacted the way he did and recovered so quickly

because the connection between him and his dad is usually so strong.

The positive relationships with the grown-ups in our lives

to try new things, to explore  and be a kid.

try to remember the most special period for our development is

What's something really impactful you can do?
