You hold a Ph.D. in developmental psychology, are a former research engineer at the CNRS, and a specialist in neuroscience.

Parents must take turns at the baby\u2019s side to meet its needs, as it could not survive on its own. The baby will also be able to make itself understood. This high level of dependence is characteristic of certain species that protect their young, and this disadvantage will turn into an advantage. The brain will continue to mature after birth and benefit from all the stimulation it receives. Childhood is long because the human brain is very demanding. Its fuel is glucose, and our bodies must make choices between the brain\u2019s gray matter and physical growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-e8025477a9b483d1995d25c75ebb9d78 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#3c7a95\">However, brain maturation is uneven, and certain parts will not be fully functional until the end of adolescence. The parietal, temporal, and occipital lobes are functional at birth, but for the frontal lobe, we\u2019ll have to wait. This important part of our brain is the seat of executive functions: in other words, everything that allows us to control our reasoning by choosing one solution over another, by being able to plan, and by changing strategies if the one implemented isn\u2019t working. The frontal lobe is also responsible for our emotional control. The importance of control in our development is highlighted by the theory of inhibition, which states that a child\u2019s major achievement lies in being able to inhibit inappropriate behaviors (\u201ccold\u201d inhibition) as well as emotional reactions (\u201chot\u201d inhibition). But this capacity for control takes years to develop!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:48px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/5senses4kids.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/2e-prix-pedagogique-4-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9480\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.7753120665742026;width:834px;height:auto\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#3c7a95;font-size:26px\"><strong><strong><em>So can you tell us more about how the brain works? <\/em><\/strong> <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-9fe6e38a8bd40e3e32203df64ae19a68 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#3c7a95\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-5650bc3ea8247c516ebc2f5b4f033cc2 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#3c7a95\">When a child makes new discoveries, connections form (synapses), some strengthen, others weaken, and some disappear (neuronal pruning). The effectiveness of synapses is therefore influenced by the frequency of information received by the brain. Thus, the child can adapt in response to their environment and prepare for changes. However, we must be wary of an idealistic interpretation. Since synapses form based on frequent experiences, it is possible that these experiences may be harmful, yet our brain will integrate them as important simply because they are frequent!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-b550d833ab0c52ed4aedf733407f1bd3 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#3c7a95\">The brain does not \u201ccopy\u201d the world; it tries to predict it. It constantly calculates what must happen based on what has occurred so far, and it is the prediction error that enables learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-767aeee271b0c176b36f89a93fa45728 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#3c7a95\">A child\u2019s brain contains our human heritage and tells us where we come from. A child\u2019s reasoning relies on a small set of innate, early-established, and rigid systems of principles. These systems are called \u201ccore knowledge\u201d and mark our origins. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-aa436b4fb3365e8361996450226faa22 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#3c7a95\">Babies\u2019 brains, already endowed at birth with \u201ccore knowledge\u201d (Box 1), are also wired for learning. The first years of life are devoted to discovery. These discoveries result from manipulation and experimentation. All of a young child\u2019s new knowledge is acquired through free movement. Children learn by interacting with objects. The brain specializes in managing movement. In a safe environment, babies can explore their surroundings to understand them and enter the world of adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:57px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/5senses4kids.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/2e-prix-pedagogique-5-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9479\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.7753120665742026;width:836px;height:auto\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-small-font-size wp-elements-8859605fdc905affd2f5d17f27d1936a wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#3c7a95\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:42px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#3c7a95;font-size:26px\"><strong><strong>You mentioned that babies\u2019 brains are already equipped with \u201ccore knowledge\u201d at birth.

Babies can mentally represent space, and this serves as the foundation for the development of geometric concepts. They want to understand the world and very early on observe the constraints that limit an object\u2019s movement in space and time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-a1c87c15b75fa65b05b7aed1608999d7 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#3c7a95\">Two objects cannot occupy the same space at the same time. An object retains its unity, even when partially hidden, and cannot be passed through by another. Infants understand that objects are inanimate and can only move upon sudden contact with another object. This principle does not apply to humans, who are animate beings. Human movements are driven by a purpose or intention. The baby establishes categories and gives preference to people who speak to them in their native language, regardless of skin color or any other characteristics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-9fe6e38a8bd40e3e32203df64ae19a68 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#3c7a95\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/5senses4kids.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/2e-prix-pedagogique-6-2-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9477\" style=\"width:740px;height:auto\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:38px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group container\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-bd7c9d7650b70e1c925584fd7ada53de wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#3c7a95\">End of the first part of this interview<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:58px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Interview with Josette Serres \u2013 Part 1.
