Being a Baby

I sometimes wonder how I felt when I was a baby. What was I thinking? What did I care about? What did I observe? What did I like? What did I dislike? Was life really carefree?

"Gopnik argues that babies are not only conscious, they are more conscious than adults...So what is it like to be a baby? According to Gopnik, it's something like attending to everything at once: There's much less of the reflexive and ignored, the non-conscious, the automatic and expert. She suggests that the closest approximation adults typically get to baby-like experience is when they are in completely novel environments, such as very different cultures, where everything is new."
