27. Birthday Cake

It’s here. The first birthday. Cake, balloons, fuss. we reflect on the last 12 months and look ahead to what's to come.

We get inside the mind of a one year old with Professor of psychology and baby expert Alison Gopnik. What can babies teach us, and how are they influencing their future. We also take a moment think about the village we need to survive that first year and beyond. It’s a cliche, but we know it’s true. The community around a child is one of the most fundamental factors for its development.
