In today's episode, Dr. Mark Sabbagh joins us to discuss the Theory of Mind. He breaks down the Theory of Mind for parents and how we can see it develop within younger children. Dr. Sabbagh explains false beliefs and how our children's minds develop an understanding of others' beliefs and feelings. We also discuss dopamine levels, executive functioning, and neurodiversity. Dr. Sabbagh reviews some practical games including pretend play to understand and develop your child's own Theory of Mind.
