It appears that the types of learning most susceptible to these “sensitive” periods are those which occur naturally as part of our evolutionary development. They are those in which the brain expects visual, auditory and tactile stimuli that are constantly present in the environment and adapts itself to them. In early childhood there are sensitive periods relating to sensory and motor development and skills we are conditioned to develop by evolution, such as spoken language. Any normally stimulating human environment enables children to develop these abilities.

One “myth” which the review considers is the idea that there are critical periods for brain development, and therefore that there may be particular significance for learning development of the first three years of life or of forms of “hot housing” of young children. Neuroscience identifies certain types of learning that are developed strongly in sensitive periods when the brain is particularly ready to respond to stimuli in the environment. The result of responding to environmental stimuli is enormous growth of axons (the “tails” of brain neurons that send electrical impulses to other neurons), dendrites (neurons’ receptors of impulses from other neurons), and synapses (the connections between axons and dendrites).
