Our studies include tracking eye gaze as an indication of language learning + collecting speech samples from an interactive.
|
During the appointments, infants and toddlers get to interact with our friendly staff and play with some fun toys! Childcare is also provided for siblings.
|
For their participation, our little scientists will receive a baby certificate and a book or t-shirt.
|
We recruit around the community and always welcome new participants - monolingual, bilingual, and multilingual! Come and join us in our quest for learning about early language development.

Language acquisition begins as early as the first month of life when infants are able to detect familiar sounds they have been exposed to prenatally. Children will vary in their development of speech and language skills, however there is a general developmental progression that has been seen. Click below to learn more!

We schedule hour-long appointments which include one or two 15-minute experiments. We take time to explain the studies in detail and answer any questions. Sibling sitting is available if needed. Appointments are available most weekdays between 8:30 am and 5:00 pm and a few select Saturdays. To add your child into our database to be recruited for studies click below!
