We learn throughout our lives, but childhood is a crucial time when our little ones learn a huge amount, day after day, often without even realising it. But really... How do you learn to do something new? Here's how, in 4 easy steps. 😉

Dysphasia, or Developmental Language Disorder (DLD), is a disorder that has a profound impact on the development of a child's language skills. Sometimes confused with other language or communication disorders, dysphasia is characterized by persistent difficulties in understanding, producing and organizing language. Babaoo has the facts for you! ⬇️

In the digital age, our children are fortunate to be able to learn while having fun, thanks to educational apps specially designed for them. We've selected the best apps for 6-8 year-olds, combining fun and learning. Let us be your guide!

Meet Anick Pelletier has devoted her career to understanding and remedying the obstacles students face, and guiding them towards academic and personal success. In this interview, you'll discover her career path, her methods and her vision of education adapted to the needs of each child.

We're very proud to announce that the Babaoo video game has been selected by French magazine Parents! 🎉 In their article entitled “Video games for kids: here are the ones they can play without fear”, Babaoo is recognized as one of the best educational apps for kids.

Nearly 2,500 participants attended the 6th Out Of The Books festival in Belgium. They gave a warm welcome to Babaoo, which combines an application and educational tools to stimulate Executive Functions in children aged 7 to 11.

The psychomotrician is a specialist in movement and coordination. They work with children to improve their mind-body interactions. Whether helping toddlers master their gestures, school-age children find their balance, or teenagers overcome motor disorders, this professional adapts his or her sessions to the specific needs of each age group. His aim is to work on motor and perceptual difficulties to improve young patients' skills.

The profession of psychologist specialized in neuropsychology (referred to as “neuropsychologist” in this article) plays a role in understanding and supporting cognitive and behavioral disorders. Let's explore this profession of cognitive remediation, focusing on the role of the pediatric neuropsychologist. Babaoo brings you up to date! ⬇️

From the start of the school year in September 2024, pupils in France will benefit from enhanced teaching of psychosocial skills (CPS) and empathy classes, an initiative promoted by Gabriel Attal during his tenure as Minister of Education. This measure aims to respond to a number of contemporary issues affecting young people, including bullying. The nationwide introduction of these courses is based on an experimental phase in 1,000 pilot classes, where several methods were tested. What are the expected effects of such an approach, and how can empathy be taught at school?

Modern education is not limited to learning the traditional academic subjects of mathematics, science or literature. Increasingly, schools and parents are developing children's psychosocial skills to educate and shape empathetic, socially-adapted individuals.

Our Brain has an incredible capacity to adapt to any situation that comes its way. Life experiences, intellectual knowledge, memory capacity... it takes a lot of connections for our neurons to transfer information throughout our Brain! This process is called Brain Plasticity, and it constantly enables the 90 billion nerve cells in our heads to adapt to every situation. Want to find out more about the "cables of our Brain"? Babaoo Mag has the answers! ⬇️

The "Terrible Two" is perhaps one of the most apprehensive periods for parents. As your child approaches 18 months of age, he or she will start to confront you frequently, refusing to listen, doing the opposite of what you ask or getting angry when you refuse a request.

Alternative pedagogies encompass all educational approaches that differ from traditional methods, respecting students' individual rhythms and interests. You're probably familiar with Montessori, Freinet or Decroly pedagogies (to name but a few). Would you like to find out more? Babaoo has the answer! ⬇️

“Mens sana in corpore sano”, as the Romans said 2,000 years ago: “A healthy mind in a healthy body”. Despite popular belief, the brain is not a muscle, but its development requires training that is sometimes worthy of a sport! To coincide with the Paris Olympics, Babaoo has created a little game - a sort of Chinese portrait - to help you discover which sports the Executive Functions might correspond to.

Understanding the fundamental mechanisms underlying learning is what Babaoo is all about. Understanding the Executive Functions is the first step towards developing and learning our cognitive processes, which are essential for both academic and personal learning. But how are the Executive Functions developed and why are they the basis of all our knowledge? Grégoire Borst and the Babaoo Mag take a closer look! ⬇️

Meditation is often seen as an inner journey reserved for adults. In reality, this activity is accessible to everyone, even the very youngest. Together, let's discover how this practice can enrich their daily lives to grow up in harmony with themselves - and the world around them! 🌟

Dyspraxia is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects motor coordination. Imagine your brain as an orchestra conductor, coordinating different instruments to create a beautiful symphony. In the case of dyspraxia, this conductor has difficulty synchronizing movements. It's not a question of willpower, but rather a discrepancy in the way the Brain processes and executes motor information.

Explicit teaching: a concept that may seem abstract, but hides a powerful and accessible educational approach. Whether you're a teacher, a parent or simply curious, this article will help you discover this method step by step. Follow the guide!

In the galaxy of pedagogies, the Montessori education approach stands out for its profound conviction that each individual has the potential to develop in a unique and individual way. This approach to learning, developed by Italian physician Maria Montessori, is based on careful observation of children, curiosity and exploration. It aims to lead them towards autonomy, develop their self-confidence and nurture their natural curiosity throughout their lives. How does it work? Babaoo takes a look at the pillars of Montessori pedagogy in this article!

Freinet pedagogy... you may have heard this term in discussions on education, or you may know a family who has chosen this type of school... But what exactly is it? Babaoo explains!

Revolutionary, outdated or a source of debate? Previously confined to research laboratories and science-fiction stories, AI has quietly woven its way into our daily lives, to the point of becoming a common topic of conversation. But what is its impact on the world of education? Babaoo brings you up to date. ⬇️

Ah, boredom... That little intruder in our lives and those of our children, that troublemaker of quiet afternoons. But, dear parents, what if we told you that this dreaded state of affairs is actually a treasure trove for our little ones' development? Far from being an enemy, boredom could well be an ally of their creativity and learning. But why? And how? Babaoo explains. ⬇️

In our modern Western society, it's impossible to do without screens. Every day, we're exposed to them via our computers, phones, games consoles and tablets. While it's difficult to stay away from them, it's perfectly possible to manage our consumption, and especially that of our children. But what can we do to limit overexposure to screens, and why is it useful to limit the time our youngest spend on games and/or social networks? Babaoo Mag has the answers! ⬇️

A unique brain... What does this really mean, in a world where each of us perceives, thinks and feels differently? To celebrate this wealth of mental diversity, the concept of neuroatypia has emerged, used by specialists to describe those neurological singularities that make us different beings. Let's dive into an exploration of what this idea really covers. 🌱

March 11 to 17 was Brain Week, and at Babaoo, we know all about brains! Babaoo was designed to help children understand how their Brain works, so they can make better use of it. 🧠 We know today: knowing how your Brain works is just as important as knowing how to read or write. Taking care of it means helping children to grow, succeed and flourish!
