I can't find actual scientific studies on the web Tom Send a noteboard - 25/04/2012 09:56:14 PM
I do find statements all over the place like this on parenting sites, though:

Crawling builds on all of the earlier skills of developmental movement. The diagonal movements of crawling and spiral turns show us the action of nerve fibers crossing over between the right brain and left brain. These connections linking the cerebral cortex are vital for language, reading, writing and math. Good communication between the brain hemispheres is essential to all problem solving and complex thinking such as sciences and creative work. Ability to see the whole and the part, and all their relationships, is developed through crawling.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!

Really, before 18 months you're wasting your time Tom - 20/04/2012 01:26:05 AM 1114 Views
I dunno. I really enjoyed books when I was that young LadyLorraine - 20/04/2012 03:12:29 AM 1143 Views
At a year and a half? Nate - 20/04/2012 06:18:01 PM 995 Views
I don't remember reading quite that young, but I do remember not long after that. LadyLorraine - 20/04/2012 09:35:11 PM 1105 Views
Color me slightly skeptical. Tom - 21/04/2012 01:17:51 PM 1021 Views
my mother spent over 20 years classroom teaching, is an Ed.D... LadyLorraine - 21/04/2012 10:40:56 PM 1318 Views
So did my mother. Elementary school teacher from 1960-1990. Tom - 22/04/2012 05:24:44 PM 1000 Views
I double checked. I was confusing it with another event. I was about 2.5 *NM* LadyLorraine - 22/04/2012 12:19:09 AM 593 Views
That sounds about right. *NM* Tom - 22/04/2012 05:20:35 PM 505 Views
Similar experience here... DomA - 20/04/2012 07:04:51 PM 1274 Views

Doesn't need to be an extended period of time, though. A few minutes is enough at the beginning. Rebekah - 23/04/2012 12:42:23 PM 1247 Views
No problem, if you just want to flush money down a toilet. Tom - 23/04/2012 02:29:57 PM 972 Views

Look, it's useless to discuss at this point but let's have the discussion again in 2 years. Tom - 23/04/2012 04:39:47 PM 1348 Views

anyone who thinks an infant sleeping on its stomach is dangerous is behind the times. LadyLorraine - 26/04/2012 01:51:59 PM 1182 Views
Yes, the SIDS indicia are all over the place. Tom - 26/04/2012 02:29:15 PM 1027 Views
If there was a big ad campaign in the UK about this then no-one told my medical team. Rebekah - 26/04/2012 07:40:48 PM 1090 Views
Hmmm. *shrug* I don't know. I trust this professor to have his facts straight. LadyLorraine - 26/04/2012 08:01:53 PM 1061 Views
Possible answer is difference between Scottish and English health systems. Rebekah - 26/04/2012 08:28:38 PM 1020 Views
weird. maybe trends have swung back the other way. LadyLorraine - 26/04/2012 10:01:01 PM 1020 Views
I hope you don't have it mixed up... Vivien - 26/04/2012 10:18:00 PM 1122 Views
blagh. maybe I do...I hope not. I hate it when that happens. let me pull out that notebook... LadyLorraine - 27/04/2012 12:01:47 AM 1011 Views

I understand where you're coming from LadyLorraine - 26/04/2012 04:50:46 PM 1277 Views
