Last week Finn participated in two studies for the UC Davis Infant Cognition Lab. We thought it would be a good idea to expose Finn to the scientific process early on in life. Though he does show a natural aptitude for experimenting on his own. He loves to test gravity by dropping food and utensils from the high chair or throwing some of his toys around the living room. He is also likes to examine the world with all of his senses, especially taste. An avid explorer, Finn is interested in every nook and cranny of the house now since he can pretty much get anywhere he wants by crawling now.
Here are a few photos from the lab day:
Finn wears a cornea tracker to record what infants are focusing on while I'm blindfolded.
In this study Finn looks at different objects on a screen to understand how babies learn about their surroundings.
