How Boys & Girls Differ: The First Six Years DVD

PRODUCT DETAILS

Grade 7 and up.
What is the real difference between how boys and girls develop? Recognizing these differences is essential to understanding child development. For example, girls have more acute hearing than boys and begin talking a bit sooner, but boys show superior spatial intelligence even in the first year. Girls start life growing physically faster and at a more steady rate. Girls develop social skills sooner than boys and are more interested in people and feelings even in the first year of growth. This program explores what these gender differences mean for parents and caregivers, how they contribute to stereotypes, and how caregivers can nourish the whole child. 20 minutes. Copyright 2002.
