Caregiver must be responsive to the child’s physical, social, and
emotional needs. 2. The caregiver and child must engage in mutually enjoyable interactions.
What is required for healthy attachments?

The main difference between hormones and neurotransmitters is that hormones are produced in endocrine glands and are released into the blood stream where they find their targets of action at some distance from its origin whereas neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic gap by a terminal of a stimulated presynaptic nerve cell, transmitting a nerve signal to its neighboring postsynaptic nerve cell.
What is the difference between hormones and neurotransmitters?

Blooming period - neural pathways form thousands of new connections during infancy and toddlerhood.• Explosive growth in developing prenatal brain
• Rapid neural network branching and linking after birth • Most rapid frontal lobes growth from 3 to 6 years; development continues into adolescence and beyond • Pruning period – neural connections are reduced during childhood and adolescence to allow the brain to function more efficiently.• Neural pruning process shuts down unused links (birth to about 20) • Nature–nurture interaction sculpts synapses • Critical period for some skills; plasticity (language)
What are the blooming and pruning periods?
