This creative children's song features no instruments other than David's voice and rubber bands stretched across various materials. When we teach parents, teachers and mental health professionals about resilience in young children, we use a rubber band to explain the concept. A rubber band can be stressed and stretch, but quickly returns to its regular shape when the stressor is gone. Similarly, the resilient child quickly "bounces back" from stress or trauma. This ability to recover quickly from a stressful experience is important to brain development. When a child is stressed the brain is bathed in a stress hormone called cortisol. If cortisol levels remain high, the hormone starts to interfere with the development of connections within the brain and the "mylenation" of existing brain pathways that make them more efficient. One of the best predictors of being able to bounce back quickly from stress is the ongoing secure attachment to a loving caregiver. A child that has experienced consistent parental love is in the best position to be immune to the long term negative effects of stress or trauma.
