DESCRIPTION

We will bring a number of child-friendly activities that teach kids about the brain and how we read and process language. These activities may involve looking at a real-time spectrogram of a child’s voice to “see what they say” and hands-on learning activities to show parts of the brain we use for reading and language. We will also provide the opportunity for parents to learn about family-oriented resources related to speech and literacy development.
