Jeff, I think one of the most important points I would want to emphasize would be the huge success infant researchers have had in the last half-decade in developing research methodologies for asking babies questions, methods which are based entirely on infants' looking behaviors. I'm thinking particularly of the stuff on habituation and preferential looking, and particularly how these behaviors are predictive of later childhood IQ.
In any case, Renee Baillargeon's stuff on object permanence is truly fascinating. And in slightly older kids, Judy DeLoache's "Credible Shrinking Room" study is quite a tale to be told.
