Welcome to the Center for Early Childhood Research at the University of Chicago!  We conduct cutting edge research exploring the development of cognition, action, and perception in the first few years of life. Our research focuses on space, number, and language development, which you can read more about on our Research page.

Our work is made possible by the support and participation of our parents and their children. If you would like to participate in our studies, please read through the information on this website and register your child. We look forward to seeing you soon at the Center for Early Childhood Research!
