Yes, You and Your Baby Really Are 'on the Same Wavelength' (IMAGE)
Caption
It's not your imagination -- you and your baby really are on the same wavelength. A team of researchers from the Princeton Baby Lab developed a way to measure baby and adult brain activity during natural interaction. In their experiment, an adult spent 5 minutes playing, singing songs, and reading Goodnight Moon with 12-month-old babies, and they measured neural synchrony using a method called functional near-infrared spectroscopy.
