Watch the movie Babies, a 2010 documentary by Thomas Balmes that explores the first year of life (concurrently) for 4 infants from four different locations in the world. The film is available on Netflix, and you may be able to watch it for free on HULU. I have also found a few (what appears to be) full-length versions on YouTube.

Assignment:

This unit we have discussed the Physical Development, Cognitive Development, and Social and Emotional Development of Infancy. After watching the film, please identify examples of Physical Development, Cognitive Development, and Social/Emotional Development from the film. You should provide a TWO examples of each development (please also try to use two different children).  After you identify and describe the example, locate information in your text or other peer-reviewed sources that support your example as an example of either Physical, Cognitive, or Social/Emotional Development. When you reference the text (or any other outside information) make sure you use appropriate APA formatting. You should also include a reference page at the end of the assignment for all references.

Here is an example:

Hattie displayed what appeared to be separation anxiety on her first day of daycare. She was very upset when her mother handed her to the teacher and began to scream and hit the teacher as though she was trying to go back to her mother; however, the film then showed Hattie happily playing with her friends later that day. (a) This is an example of attachment theory. Based on Mary Ainsowrth patterns of attachment, there are 4 main types of attachment: secure attachment, avoidant attachment, ambivalent/resistant attachment and disorganized-disoriented attachment (Rathus, 2016). (b) Based on my observation, I would describe Hattie as having a secure attached to her mother, as a securely attached infant is one that initially expresses distress upon leaving her parent, but is able to be soothed by the new caregiver (Rathus, 2016). (c)

This assignment should be completed as one word document, with headings separating each development section.
