Actually, that's a little inaccurate. Most research today supports the idea that infants begin to learn while in the womb, e.g. the sound of the mother's voice and basic language priming. Even after birth, mimicry occurs only with very elementary movements of the face, and some babies exhibit mimicry more than others while others do not at all (though it's important to note that the occurence of mimicry does occur more often and more rapid for children who are nine months or older). Because of this, it is difficult to ascertain the exact role of mimicry as a learning device. There are skeptics and proponents.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community.
