We had a wonderful time on Friday at the Preschool Day @scienceatlife, there was a colour theme which was perfect for our visual working memory task which uses arrays of coloured squares. It was great to meet so many families! 🌈🎨🟣

We now have our own website up and running (a big thank you to @OscarSill, one of the Babylab team). Have an explore and let us know what you think! babylab.webspace.durham.ac.uk

Last week we presented our current research at the 'Creative and Innovative Methods in Research with Children and Young People Conference', it was excellent to chat to people and hear about the other amazing research that takes place 🎨🧠📈
