Thanks for your patience and cooperation as I'm out today (Yay...dentist appointments...). You'll find all the links and videos you'll need for today's activities in this post.
Phenylketonuria (PKU) Video
Infant Reflexes
Your text does not cover some of these important infant reflexes, so I want to make sure you've had a chance to see them. All of them are present in newborns and aid survival of otherwise vulnerable infants.
Rooting Reflex
Sucking Reflex (this video will actually demonstrate both sucking and rooting reflexes)
Grasping Reflex
Moro Reflex (This is sometimes described as an infant's startle response. Can be brought on by any unexpected stimulus. Although this is nicely illustrated in the video below, I like this one better, because it's cute.)
Babinski Reflex (Ignore the weird, melodramatic tone in this video)
