Effects On A Child Brain Development and Later Life
Posted: Tue Nov 24, 2015 12:24 pm
Can someone please check that for me? I am so confused. I always overthink the questions and getting more confused.
2. The experiences a child has in the early years can have profound effects on their brain development and later lives. Describe in your own words how these experiences can:
Guidance: response needs to relate to relevant theories, legislation, codes, frameworks and practices
a) Impact their health
What happens to children in the early years has consequences right through their lives. Intervening in early childhood, including the antenatal period, is the most effective phase to impact on the future development of the child. Piaget believed that one's childhood plays a vital and active role in a person's development. According to Piaget, children’s development is largely due to maturation of the brain and nervous system and active exploration of the environment.
Between conception and age three, a child’s brain undergoes an impressive amount of change. Brain fine-tunes itself according to the input it receives from the environment. A child’s senses report to the brain about his environment and experiences, and this input stimulates neural activity. A part of the brain regulates emotion in shaped early on by experience and forms the brain’s emotional wiring. If the child starts his life in a stressful, negative environment the brain can’t develop properly and it can lead to the psychosocial and health problems such as depression, anxiety, aggression, speech problems.
b) Impact their learning
Regarding to EYLF children’s “earliest development and learning takes place through relationships, particularly within families, who are children’s first and most influential educators”. (Belonging, Being, Becoming)Pg.7
The most rapid period of brain development occurs in the first few years of life and the experiences of early childhood have an enduring effect on an individual's future learning capacity. Vygotsky's theory is that thought and language become increasingly independent in the first few years of life. Positive early experiences have a huge effect on children’s chances for achievement, success, and happiness.
In case of any traumatic and negative experiences or when the brain doesn’t have enough stimulation in an early childhood the brain may not develop properly which leads to the learning difficulties. The children can have speech problems, problem with memory, delays at school, problem with their physical development and also problem with learning social skills.
c) Impact their behaviour
The first 5 years of children’s life is the time when children develop and learn really fast. Regarding to Albert Bandura’s behaviour theory children learn by watching and copying others. Children may model themselves on the adults around them even when the adults aren’t a good example. That’s why we should always show children behaviour, skills and dispositions we want them to learn from us.

You related each point to the theorist and you provided a couple of quotes to the EYLF. I would also recommend just adding more links to the Quality Areas, regulations and even the Code Of Ethics etc, as that's what the question is asking. You don't need to change what you wrote you just need to find the points you wrote, in these relevant documents and add them in...
