Wesleyan University Cognitive Development Labs At the Cognitive Development Lab, we study the way young children perceive, learn about, and think about the world.

We use simple (and fun) games to find out more about how kids think about numbers, space, language, and people.

We are sending undergraduate student volunteers trained in early numeracy to play our math games in preschool classrooms across Connecticut beginning in October. Teachers will receive a full set of math games for their classroom, an enthusiastic undergraduate volunteer, and a generous stipend for participating.

Yesterday our dream team wrapped up the post-tests for our NSF-funded preschool math games intervention this year. It has been a big but rewarding challenge to launch this project, and we couldn’t have done it without this exceptional crew. Most of all we are so grateful to the schools and teachers and kiddos who welcomed us in. We are IN AWE of early childhood educators and the work they do every day! They deserve a zillion dollars and all our support! 🎉🎉🎉
