Description
Welcome back, young scientists. I’m Dr. Universe. If you’re anything like me, you’ve got lots of big questions about our world.
Today we're talking about babies with Masha Gartstein, a psychologist who studies infant temperament at Washington State University.
- Learn about the individual differences that make up a baby's temperament and how scientists study it in the lab with real babies (Hint: It involves Halloween masks!)
- Hear about Dr. Gartstein's job and her advice for kids who want to be scientists
Resources You Can Use
