⚙️ Mindmap: Overview of Early Childhood Reflexes
💡 How primitive reflexes influence development, motor skills, and later learning
Early childhood reflexes are a baby's first movement patterns – automatic programs that help them survive, orient themselves, and explore the world.
But what many don't know: If these reflexes are not inhibited in time, they can later affect posture, motor skills, attention, and even learning.
