Stimuli Shapes Development:
Babies respond to stimuli, fostering holistic development.
Sound Stimulus and Neural Plasticity:
Sound-rich environments influence neural plasticity in the prenatal period.

Pre-birth stimulation enhances post-birth alertness and recognition of familiar stimuli.

Tips for Prenatal Stimulation
