From pregnancy through their second birthday, every child deserves a strong start in life.

What do straws, pipe cleaners, and life experience have in common? They’re part of The Brain Architecture Game. We’re kicking off NJ’s inaugural First 1,000 Days Summit with a hands-on activity showing how early experiences shape the developing brain.
