Infants can learn simple things, even during sleep

 A Study reported that infants can learn simple things, even during sleep. Researchers from Columbia University see that this study may one day help to identify infants who are at risk of disturbances in growth at this stage, which may not appear in normal conditions only during the late stages of childhood.
The scientists record the electrical waves to the number of children during sleep, and their movements recorded by a video camera in order to know the expressions on their faces, and then fired music, coupled with the launch of a light breeze from the air on the machine prompting them to tighten eyes., and they did reaction to that. The scientists repeated this nine times  and in the tenth time they released music, but without the air so , most of those babies (24 out of 26) move their faces when they hear the music. The scientists said that "control the brains of these children showed the presence of spontaneous activity and changes" and they concluded that the children related between music and the air and this is evidence of their ability to learn even at this early age.
