A small study on child development looked at the role music and movement has between babies and adults. To anyone that has rocked a baby and sung a lullably, you probably know already the soothing affect it can have. The question this study asked was:
What makes young children behave in a pro-social way — taking actions that help others and benefit the group?
Babies that were moved in synchrony with a partner and to the beat of a music demonstrated more signs of social connection than a baby who didn’t.
The study also looked at the effect of lullabies on the moms who sang them. The lullaby calmed down the baby, but it also calmed down the mom who sang them.

Bilateral integration supports nearly every movement we do. Here we discuss how it contributes to handwriting and keyboarding skills.
Shoulder stability is necessary to maintain and change the position of the shoulder to support the arm and hand. This is important for handwriting and keyboarding.
Postural Control refers to the ability to maintain and change the position of the trunk and neck.
In this issue we discuss the ATNR & STNR reflexes, how these reflexes affect learning, signs of unintegrated reflexes, and activities to facilitate reflex integration.
