Watch the movie Babies

Please make sure your paper is double-spaced with 1 inch margins and 12-point font Times New Roman

For the paper, select a topic from the course, and analyze/ hypothesize how variations in the babies’ contexts will be related to variations in this development, and how/ whether education can further impact them once the children enter school. This could include for example physical development – timeline or differences in skills, language phonemic awareness, social relationships, attachment etc.
Make sure to first explain the theory and developmental mechanism you are focusing on in detail. Theories could include Piagetian equilibration/constructivism, observational learning, social learning, information processing theory, attachment, temperament, etc. Define all terms and state what the textbook or lectures described about child development for this theory. Next, describe at least two but maybe more observations from the movie that provide insight into cultural variations or commonalities in this developmental phenomenon.
Lastly, hypothesize how the environment impacts (or does not impact) this development using your observations to motivate or evaluate your hypothesis. Use this to discuss how educators could support this development in the future once the children enter school. As in, is it something education can impact or not? (e.g. height maybe not, pragmatic communication skills maybe yes). And if yes, what might this look like across cultures
