Dass neue Herausforderungen zum Lernen anregen, weiß die Hirnforschung seit langem. Neu ist die Erkenntnis, dass die überwältigende Erfahrung, ein Kind zu bekommen und es aufzuziehen, dauerhafte Spuren im Gehirn der Mutter hinterlässt. Vielfältige Sinneseindrücke schärfen ihre Wahrnehmungsfähigkeit, das tägliche Multitasking steigert die Effizienz.
