Baby reflexes

In this lesson we talked about some baby reflexes. I thought they were very funny. We said that reflexes are simple, unlearned, stereotypical responses. These are the ones we learned in class.
• Rooting
• Sucking
• Moro or startle reflex
• Grasping or palmar reflex
• Stepping reflex
• Babninski reflex
• Tonic-neck reflex

Then we said that increased brain development reduces reflexes. Later we talked about why babies cry and said that at first when they are very little, they cry for everything. As they grow older they have differentaited cries. we also said that adults usually get very annoyed if there is a baby crying. This is because you have instincts which make you want to protect the baby.

This was a very nice lesson and I really enjoyed the videos we watched about these reflexes. It was a short lesson since we did in class time on Thursday.
